Your database backups are managed differently depending on whether you are on a hosted or on-premise environment. The information below outlines what you can expect for each.
On-premise
For on-premise installations, database backups are the responsibility of the customer. Access does not manage or monitor backups for on-premise environments.
Hosted
For hosted environments, Access manages your database backups automatically. Backups are taken at regular intervals and retained according to the schedule below.
Backup frequency and retention
The following backup schedule is in place for hosted environments:
SQL Transaction log backup every 15 minutes, retained for 28 days.
Daily backup (10 pm) - retained for 28 days.
Weekly backup (Saturday) - retained for three months.
Monthly backup (1st of the month) - retained for one year.
All backups are stored within a multi-tenancy data vault and are encrypted at rest.
