My site host informed me last week that the entire server my site is on experienced “a perfect storm of failure” and not only that—their own backup of my site was also trashed somehow! I had to restore using a backup I had made in April. I will identify this site host because I consider this to be unacceptable service. It is HostingMatters.com.
They state that cpanel has no way to automate an entire site backup to a dropbox/FTP server of mine.
I have seen some paid solutions for automating an entire site backup of an EE site.
I would like to suggest that a much-needed EE feature would be the ability to automate entire site backups in this way.
A search of the forums here didn’t yet turn up such a feature. Does one exist yet in EE?
