Top use cases for Kernel for SQL Backup Recovery

Recover data from corrupted .bak files

The moment your backup file gets corrupted, the threat of losing critical SQL data arises, leading to a permanent disruption in your business operations. Previous attempts at manually extracting data from corrupted or damaged .bak files have proven inefficient. However, the Kernel tool offers a reliable solution to extract all data from corrupted or damaged .bak files and save it to the Live SQL Server or a batch file. This quick recovery process enables users to ensure uninterrupted business operations.

Export recovered data to Live SQL Server

After successfully recovering the damaged data, the next necessary step is to export it to the Live SQL Server accurately. The manual transfer of extensive recovered data also falls prey to inconsistencies and data loss. This utility simplifies the recovery process for corrupted SQL backup files and provides users with the flexibility to export data to a live SQL server smoothly. Users can experience a seamless recovery and export while ensuring the integrity of the recovered SQL data remains intact.
