Fair enough, I did assume the target audience was selfhosters based on the question.

As for provider backups - well, you’d hope. But M$ doesn’t do user available backups, so I’d be surprised if that was bundled by the average SaaS provider.

And if you don’t know what database you’re running, how are you backing it up?

If you don’t know what database you’re running, are you bothering to do a full shutdown before backups? Are you doing backups at all…
