Abstract

In one example, a method of data restore testing is disclosed. The method may determine whether to validate a request to restore a backup of production data. The request may be for a database backup, a file system backup or another data type. The method may generate a database instance that restores a backup database data if the request is for database data and may generate a file system instance to restore a backup file system if the request is for a backup of a file system. The method may lockdown access to the restored backup, validate the integrity of the restored backup relative to production data. The validation may be based on a checksum of the restored backup and a checksum of the production data, for example.
