I believe JAWs db has automated backups. i remember seeing that somewhere.
You're right. JawsDB plans and pricing
It may still be nice to be able to dump/insert the database to switch between services or if you want to use a service that doesn't offer automatic backups (though I'm guessing anything but self-hosting comes with backups). Even then, it's possible to do these things via command line or MySQL Workbench.
This is an important feature. At the very least, an administrator should be able to download the database as a json file. Even if we don't initially provide a method of restoring the database from a backup, it gives the admin a way to avoid total data loss in the event of a hardware failure or catastrophic bug.
Down the road, we would want to have some kind of automated backup and a means to restore from backups.
