myLittleBackup for SQL Server 2000, 2005 and 2008

myLittleBackup for SQL Server 2000, 2005 and 2008 is the first Backup/Restore solution specially designed for shared SQL Server hosting.

With myLittleBackup, shared SQL Server hosting companies will be able to give their customers an easy and secure solution to backup/restore their databases.

Today all web-hosting companies only offer night backup. At myLittleTools, we think that each web-hosting company that propose SQL Server in its hosting plans should offer their customers a solution to backup their database and download the backup file, and also a solution to upload a backup file and restore (install) it on the shared sql server.

This is really important because customers use the shared SQL Server as the production server and they use their own servers as development and test servers. Thus they need a way to get/put one database from one server to the other.

myLittleBackup for SQL Server is a web-based application. It means that it can be accessed from any Internet connected computer anywhere in the world, from work, at home or on the move.

Works with all supported versions of MS SQL Server

myLittleBackup has been successfully tested with:

  • SQL Server 2008
  • SQL Server 2005
  • SQL Server 2000
  • SQL Server 7.0

It means that myLittleBackup can be used to backup a MS SQL 2000 database and then to restore this backup file on a MS SQL 2005 server. Please note that MS SQL backup files are not upward compatibles.

Backup, Download

How many times a day do you receive support queries like "How can i get a copy of my database?"

myLittleBackup allows to backup a database in only a few clicks. Once the database has been back up, the user is able to download the backup file on his own machine.

Upload, Restore

We know how careful you have to be when restoring from a backup file that has come from another server. After restoring the database, you have to go through removing any incorrect user mappings, adding the correct mappings and checking important options, such as auto-shrink or auto-close.

myLittleBackup allows to upload a backup file and restore it on the SQL server even when the backup file comes from another server. After the restore process, myLittleBackup will check user mappings and all other important options for you.
