Strato Kunden / German Hoster Strato Issues Upload or Processing time

    Planning to buy the Premium Version!

    Situation: Running quite a few large size wordpress pages on german hoster Strato, so I hope to get info and/ or feedback from Updraft and probably german users as well!

    I have large databases from some pages that even importing an export I made with phpMyAdmin can’t be imported via phpMyAdmin either due to time out or size restrictions by Strato!
    I read in the Updraft Documentation that one issue with german hoster Strato can be solved by changing to another Zip comprimation. But there’s also an issue with Strato and other ‘popular’ hosting companies that they don’t allow larger files / or time consuming imports to be processed. ;(

    My questions:
    1. Can Updraft Premium do backups AND IMPORTS/ RESTORING BACKUPs of WordPress databases the size of 500MB or even 1.5GB? I plan to save the backup on Stratos own sftp, saving won’t be a problem but will importing a large database work with the possible size restrictions of Strato?
    2. If so, will the backup be chopped into parts? Will Updraft Premium do that for me or is there a documentation I can use?
    3. Will Updraft Premium work around the limits of the hoster like DumpSQL used to?

    Would LOVE to hear from Strato users as well how they manage their large sitze backups!

    Best regards,
    TheGent

    Hi,

    I think I may have replied to you in our helpdesk but just in case it is helpful for other users;

    1. Yes, there is no limit to how large the site is, as long as you have sufficient resources, UpdraftPlus can back it up/

    2.The backup will be split into something called archive splits: https://updraftplus.com/splitting-large-sites-into-multiple-archives/.  Updraft will split the backup up for you. 

    3.By default, UpdraftPlus only tries to use a binary mysqldump for larger tables.  There is an option to force UpdraftPlus to always try this: https://updraftplus.com/hacking-updraftplus/
