Database schedule and state db question

Discussion in 'Pre-sales questions' started by Joe1, Dec 2, 2013.

  1. Two questions.
    1. Can we schedule a daily backup of a database instead of manually having to do this?
    2. I need two SQL Server databases. One for the application and a second for using sql session state. I would like them on two separate databases. Do I need to purchase two databases for this or is there a way to have two databases but limit the space on each. I just didn't want to purchase two databases for one application.

    Thank you for your time.

    1. You can try our Control Panel API.

    2. Unfortunately, if you want 2 databases, you'll have to purchase 2 separate add-on services, however, you can just install SQL Session State into the same database. Only two tables are added to your database to manage session state.

    1. Yes you can use the control panel's API but we have a customer that created a really cool tool. You might want to check it out here (it still requires the API). I believe you can schedule the daily backups using the tool the customer created.
