TeamLab Portal Backup and Restore: Managing Projects With No Data Loss Ever

TeamLab Portal Backup and Restore: Managing Projects With No Data Loss Ever

Amidst the rapid development of cloud computing technologies online project management solutions are becoming more and more popular among businesses. Teams use cloud-based PM tools to work on projects together and get things done in a more effective way. However, for a project manager it is always hard to decide for a certain online tool. The main reason for concern is dependency on the vendor: what if the service ever becomes unavailable, accounts are suspended and the data is lost?

Such fears are reasonable, as the vendor reserves the right to update and change terms of service at any time without notice. He may impose unreasonable costs for the service which was initially free (the way it happened with ActiveCollab, for instance). As a result, companies are forced to abandon the cloud and look for alternative solutions. Therefore, it is extremely important for a company to have safe, on-premise backup and recovery solution for the data.

TeamLab is one of a few cloud-based project management platforms with instant data backup and restore options. The backup feature is available directly in the UI of the portal. It allows companies to export data stored in the cloud to hard drive in one click. This feature is not something new, it is also offered within similar project management services available on the market (such as Basecamp or Centraldesktop). However, they do not offer an opportunity to restore data back to the cloud. This is logical, because in multi-tenant environment data restore might be a problem, as there is danger of damaging other users' data.

What makes TeamLab distinctive from its competitors is the availability of the open-source version. With the help of open source it is possible to backup and restore data in 3 quick steps:

1. perform backup directly from the portal interface;

2. deploy TeamLab source code on the own server;

3. restore the backed up data using a special utility provided along with the code.

The automatic restore utility ensures quick data recovery and minimal portal downtime. Companies can access data on-premise and are free to use TeamLab independently of the vendor. This way TeamLab guarantees lifelong portal availability with no data loss ever.

Indeed, data safety and security is of the highest priority for companies of all sizes. And there are enterprises who abandon the cloud solely for the reason of data vulnerability. However, when a vendor provides both clouded and open-source product versions, this is a compelling argument for reliability of the service. It makes companies to take a step towards using the cloud computing technology despite its apparent drawbacks.
