Emergency Table-Level Restore: How Stedman Solutions’ Managed Services Can Save Your SQL Server

This post was inspired by a text message from one of our managed services clients at 5am this morning. 26 minutes later we had their table fully restored, most of that time was running the actual restore. Just part of the support we provide to our managed services customers.

Imagine it’s a busy day at the office, and suddenly, you’re notified that an essential table in your SQL Server database has been accidentally modified. The clock is ticking, data is at risk, and a quick resolution is paramount. This is where Stedman Solutions’ Managed Services step in to turn what could be a disaster into a mere hiccup in your day.

Why Quick Action is Essential

In situations where a table is accidentally modified, every second counts. The longer it takes to restore the table, the more data could be lost, and the greater the impact on your business operations. Fast, efficient, and targeted recovery is not just desired; it’s essential.

The Challenge of Table-Level Restore

SQL Server does not natively support table-level restores. Usually, the process involves restoring a backup to a separate database and then moving the data over. This can be time-consuming and complex, especially under pressure.
