Migration and restore backup

Postby sebas77 » June 26th, 2013, 4:59 pm

Hi,

I have 2 simple questions, please take in consideration I am not a security expert, so I am still figuring out the best practices.

1) I know it is possible to export the users database, but I wonder how it can be used to migrate users from your service to another one in case this would ever happen (especially regarding the password handling)

2) is there a way to roll-back a db backup to a given point in time? If yes, how?

When you export a user database, you get their usernames and emails, but we don't store their passwords, so we can't export those.

And no, there is no point-in-time BigDB restore.

so there is only last backup restore, right?

what do you suggest us to do in order to not let the users reinsert password if we intend to migrate?
