What is your Problem in understanding the Word "Backup"?

Translation for you:
A Backup is a File or Set of Files thadt contains the Data of your 
Business critical Informations.
It should not be Archived on the same place, the same House or the same 
Room.

A Replication Database has nothing to do with a Backup, it works only 
for Failover if the Primary
Database has a Mailfunction.

A good Backuptool is needed if you have Databases with sizes over 1 
Terrabyte. The common
Backup methods wont Work with Online Productiondatabases and without the 
Problem of Datalosses,
this is only a Way for small and Mediumsize Databases, not for Hugh 
Databases.

Keep in Mind: Backup is NOT Replication!

Write it down 100 times and maybe you understand
