On this week's episode of Backup Central's Restore it All, Mr. Backup himself becomes the guest, while Prasanna Malaiyandi takes over as host. W. Curtis Preston explains the backup configuration of the website behind the Restore it All podcast, and how bit rot caused him to have to restore part of it. We talk about bit rot, the 3-2-1 rule, off-site backups, backups stored in S3 and Google Drive, and what it's like to restore part of a MySQL database. Luckily, the folks at LiquidWeb were very helpful. Watch Curtis explain how practices what he preaches over at BackupCentral.com.
