I moved my blog from CF 8 and SQL Server to Railo and MySQL as backend three months before. The migration went very smooth and till date I didn't have any issues. Since I'm using blogCFC for my blog I didn't do much on the coding front rather the changes happened on the SQL Server to MySQL conversion only. I would like to thank Charlie Arehart for helping and Jordon & Mark from Viviotech for providing the hosting for my site.
There are many ways out there to automate the backup process of SQL Databases. I have been using some of them over the time and was found something missing in it on the functionality side. Quite recently I started using the MySQL Backup FTP tool which is really handy and I would say it does the job perfectly on taking the databases backups.
I tried and used some database administration tools for MySQL but I feel like something was missing in its features. Recently I started using Navicat for MySQL database management which is really awesome and having many features which can be used to solve and manage your database with a very minimal amount of time.
