Lost Data: Here are some ways you can use for Data Recovery
Once someone loses data, they have various things they can opt to do:
Use backups: If you have been keeping a good backup system, then recovery would be easy using it. Since a copy of the original information is stored on the backups, it is possible to retrieve data from them. This all depends on how effective your backup has been e.g. employing automatic backup at regular intervals, say after every hour. This means that recreating data from the backup would be less tiresome. But what if the backups are totally outdated? They will become almost irrelevant. Therefore, although data in backups could be reliable, it wouldn’t be the most efficient way for data recovery. Also, what if both the backup and original information get destroyed?
Recreate the data from scratch: Others may opt to recreate data from scratch. If the data was not much then this would be a good option. But what if you are dealing with a large organization that has a data bank? One may not opt for recreation because it would need a lot of time and money. It has been found out that the estimated cost of recreating your data from scratch is $6000 per megabyte.
