The Worst Data Archiving Mistakes You Should Avoid

We live in times where most of the data we have is in a digital format. In that format, data is susceptible to damage or loss. Sometimes the data corrupts itself for no apparent reason, other times the hardware where it’s stored fails.

Similar to the old days where data was copied and archived "just in case," we do the same with our digital data now. In these modern times, we move the data around for various reasons, but mostly during data archiving or migrating to a different server. The problem is that most people don’t take the process of data archiving very seriously. They look at it like copy and pasting last year’s vacation pictures from one partition to another one. For the average user, it usually is the case, but companies do things differently. Data archiving or migrating in a company is a process that needs to be carefully planned and thought out. The non-seriousness of the people in charge of that process is the reason why complications arise and data becomes lost.
