Hi Turritopsis, 

On backups:

If the windows machines are vms, then back up the vms themselves. Quickest way 
to restore, and with a decent snapshotting backup, low impact. We run a backup 
of each vm every hour or so, retaining a week's worth - and then have normal 
backups as well.  When we need to recover a table, then we restore the vm to a 
new IP, dump the table and restore it on the live machine.

If they're physical machines or the above isn't suitable, then I imagine the 
Windows version of Mariadb will come with Windows builds of its associated 
tools - one of which will be "mysqldump" - there are plenty of guides to use 
this, here's just one: 
https://phoenixnap.com/kb/how-to-backup-restore-a-mysql-database  

Alternatively, there are lots of free and commercial backup solutions for 
mariadb (and mysql which will probably also work for Maria), some of which will 
rotate the backups and transfer them to a remote machine for you, if that's 
what you want.

Subject: Backup MariaDB Databases for Suprema BioStar 2 Door Access System

Good day from Singapore,

On 7 March 2024 Thursday, when I was installing new self-signed SSL certificate 
for the door access system for a law firm in Singapore, I notice that Suprema 
BioStar 2 also uses the open source MariaDB database server. If I did not 
remember wrongly, there are 3 databases.

However, the entire platform is a Windows environment, not Linux.

How can I backup all the databases in the MariaDB database server?

Thank you.

Regards,
