| 3 | 2 | Greg Mathis | We use Perforce and Redmine running on an AWS Server. Our backup strategy is to simply create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) of the current server state. This AMI can then be used to launch a new server instance which will look just like the original, preserving all Perforce and Redmine data. |
