A rule I follow is that when you need to use a backup, you probably will need it very badly. Here are my 10 best practices for setting up Drupal site backups so that when (not if) the day comes you need to do a restore, you will be able to recover with minimal downtime and impact.
#1 : Name a person (not a team) who is personally accountable for monitoring the backup process.
