SQL Database Data Recovery

Recovering Data from Lost / Inaccessible / Corrupted SQL Databases

SQL data is usually held on a central server – typically a RAID 5 and SQL data loss can happen for a variety of reasons such as disk errors, server crashes, incorrect server restarts / shutdowns, software upgrades and data migration. Typically the problems encountered take the form of

• Incomplete SQL database files
• Missing data / tables from SQL files
• Corrupt data / tables from SQL files
• Incorrect database file sizes
• Unopenable files

SQL databases cause a problem for the majority of data recovery companies as they generally have very little idea about the internal workings and structure. If they receive a damaged SQL file they will simply run a variety of SQL recovery software on the damaged file and hope that the software can sort the problem out and recover the data. Often the results provided are of a poor standard and much of the data will remain lost / corrupted.
