I reckon it would be good if there was a way for HiveSQL to have multiple copies in some way, to provide redundancy if (or when) this happens again. With any luck it might save @arcange a huge amount of work (which I know we all appreciate !)
I'm not technical enough to know if there's a way to create an air-gapped copy with more recent data uploaded a couple of times a day after enough time had passed to intercept any hacks or other issues. It might mean less data to reconstruct. But I'm thinking like a mechanic not an IT person, so I could be totally wrong, lol.
Thank you for your kind words @alonicus.
Without going into details, the HiveSQL infrastructure has been completely revised to improve it, particularly in terms of backups. This might be the subject of a future post, if I find some free time.
Thank you ! If I was you'd I'd have the mother of all lie-ins, and maybe a holiday, after what you've just had to go through 😁 Posts about stuff like that are interesting, but can wait until you've recovered a bit....
It ought to be possible to run multiple servers. I expect arcange has reviewed his backup strategy. You need offline copies to be safer as these crooks are cunning.
A lot of things depend on it. Some projects may look to have their own server after this incident.

Yes, a good rest is definitely in order.

Done! ✅
