Hello, this is a two part question
1) Can someone recommend a way to automatically backup SQL and mysql databases? Preferably if there is an online service (free or paid). Would be nice if the software or website could handle SQL and mysql.
I am currently hosting my .net MVC 3.0 application hosted on asphostportal.com. We are in the final stages of development and run into an issue that corrupted the dub a week or so ago.
We were lucky that the deb for now just contained test information, but I gave a call to asphostportal to see if they could restore a previous backup. It was only until this problem that they came clean and said that there had been no backup of any files to anyone on my server for more than 6 months because of some issue they were having. We never received any warning about this.
This brings me to my next question:
2) Could you provide me with some alternatives to .net hosting? Monthly or yearly price is not an issue just looking for the best out there (shared hosting, not ready for private server yet).
I notice I am getting session timeouts all the time while logged into the application, but see it happening even in the control panel so I am not sure if the issue might be bigger than just their backup procedures.
All help is much appreciated.
