Customers hosting the Adonis solution on-premise are recommended to manage a backup solution. A backup is a copy of the data that can be used to restore the original after a data loss event. This article contains recommendations from Adonis.

We normally recommend making a daily full backup of your database and an incremental copy every 2 hours. You can use the SQL maintenance plan for making these backups. We strongly recommend minimally backup your system onshore. If you do planning and wage calculation onboard we also recommend a copy of your vessel database.

Backups are best stored on another device with the following retention periods:

• Keep transaction log backups for 1 week or longer
• Keep the daily backups for 1-2 weeks or longer (daily backup)
• Keep one of the complete backups bi-weekly for 2 months (bi-weekly backup)
• Keep one of the complete backups each month for 1 year (monthly backup)
• Keep one complete backup from the beginning/end of the (fiscal) year (yearly backup

We recommend you have a backup of your server environment on top of the database backups. More background information like how to set up the backups can be found in the document below:
