As thanks to hc.ru, I realized that backups should be done by myself

On Friday, around five o'clock, I-metric and god began to fall asleep mail alerts - one of the sites stopped responding. It would seem that this is a shared hosting hc.ru, they always have some troubles. A few hours later, the situation has not improved - the site is lying, the IP address does not respond. The support answer was very pleased - there was a failure and the working capacity would be restored no earlier than Sunday afternoon (that is, almost two days later).

What, in fact, is the salt of the fast - in two days the server was raised, and the backup was restored three months ago, they say, “well, I didn’t use it”). This is the finish, now everything will have to be restored on Google's cache.

I am writing to:

• you have not stepped on the same rake - if the Russian hoster writes a “backup” in the description of the services, keep in mind that they do not write how often they will do it = (
• find out what convenient backup services are (mysql + files)

By the way - recently transferred from hc.ru another project to English linode.com - for less money I got a smart scalable and managed vps to xen with a guaranteed backup (daily / monthly / weekly + custom), which does not slow down the disks on Friday and the output in the evening because “our servers are attacking” (hc.ru had a few months like that).
