Backup and Restore in the Mendix cloud environment.

1
Hi All We have purged a lot of data from our system and want to do a backup and restore to decrease the size of the database. My questions is? Will i loose any of the meta data like files and images if i do this. I would test but our accp and test servers are not on the mendix cloud. If i remember correctly i wont loose anything but i want to make sure. Is there another or better way to do maintenance on the database(purge all deleted records) on the mendix cloud without backing up and restoring?   Regards, Patrick

Hi Patrick,

If you do a online restore in the Mendix cloud as described here(3.2.1, you won't lose any data: https://docs.mendix.com/developerportal/howto/how-to-restore-a-backup

Im guessing you do this restore to achieve something like this?: https://docs.mendix.com/howtogeneral/support/database-maintenance-size-reduction#2-2-option-2-creating-and-restoring-a-backup-of-the-database
