Back at the office we have the Network version of Paper Tiger Filing System Software for document management installed on a Windows 2008 Server. Our Paper Tiger is setup for automatic backups, so that our most recent backups are located at “C:\PaperTiger PTNETWORK41 DBBackups”. See our blog post The Paper Tiger Enhancement with Automatic Archive Option for instructions to configure Paper Tiger for automatic archiving of your database.
Whenever we need to retrieve a backup file, we must physically be in-front of the Windows 2008 Server machine. Suppose our CEO took a month vacation to Japan, and left us at the office. If our boss asks for a backup file of our Paper Tiger Databases, we would have to .zip the file to him via email every time he makes a request. We are a large data information firm and we are constantly updating and moving files. Anything that we send our boss becomes extremely outdated within 30 minutes. What is the ideal solution for this situation? An asynchronous backup folder via Dropbox.
