Backup and rollback

How the online casino backup system works: protection against data loss, regular backups, recovery points and quick rollback.
Expert Stanislav Anisimov

In online casinos, any disruptions are not just an inconvenience, but a threat to money, data and player confidence. An update error, technical failure, or cyberattack can result in the loss of critical information. Therefore, a reliable backup system and the ability to instantly roll back are mandatory elements of the infrastructure of a modern casino.
