SQL Azure Backup Strategy


my database size 32gb already.

and quite take time backup using create database copy.

the last time, create backup command (to different server).

with size of 27gb, takes 6 hours finish.

the database size keep growing , backup time seem take more , more time.

 

i know guy,

how do you backup on database?

how long take?

is other way can make backup process more faster?

 

actually, make fast possible.

currently before deploy changes in database, have wait until backup process finish. take 6-7 hours. , after deploy changes, want our tester have time smoke test on prod server. if backup process take longer time mean tester have less time test.

 

 

check below link there various resources , option available backup database.
