What type of backup process does Saviynt implement?

Saviynt implements a daily full backup process, which is crucial for maintaining data integrity and accessibility. This approach ensures that a complete snapshot of all configurations, user data, and relevant system information is saved every day. The advantage of a daily full backup is that it minimizes the risk of data loss since even the most recent updates are included in the backup. Should a recovery be necessary, this strategy allows for a straightforward restoration process, enabling users to revert systems back to a specific point in time.

Moreover, having daily backups can be essential for environments where changes to data occur frequently, ensuring that there is always up-to-date information available. This comprehensive approach also helps in reducing the complexity associated with managing incremental backups, where only changes since the last backup would be saved and potentially complicate restoration processes.

This contrasts with other backup types, such as incremental backups, which may not capture all data on a daily basis, and full backups less frequent than daily, which might risk data loss between backup points. The monthly cloud backup reflects a more sporadic approach which, while useful in certain scenarios, does not provide the same level of immediate recoverability as daily full backups.
