More Optimizing, Database Backup Functionality Restored

Hello all, hope you’re enjoying everything.

Just letting you know I’m still alive and that the nobreaks.ca site has had a drastic reduction in HTTP requests making for a much snappier browsing experience.

I’ve also been playing around with entire site backup to enable quick disaster recovery via an offsite method of filesystem and database. I’ve found a service I’m happy to pay for and have signed on for a year so we’ll see where that leads. My web host also offers a competitive rate of 19.99/month for 250 gigs of secure redundant FTP storage compatible with a mass of backup software and tools.

Recently the database connection via SSH was broken for unknown reasons however the issue has been resolved and backups occur daily of both the filesystem and dataases on the ready to restore.

Regards,
