You should look into setting up a mirror backup. You could write code to create 
a new journal file every 10 minutes (one line of code, not counting the 
scheduling loop), and then a (.bat/python/vba) script to transfer that journal 
file to the mirror server. On the mirror, integrate the journal and then copy 
it to a journal archive folder, which gets backed up safely to a remote site, 
Amazon S3, wherever.

Schedule a nightly 4D backup to run on the mirror, and ship it off site as 
well, and you'll be able to completely recover to within 10 minutes of the 
disaster, even if your entire data center gets destroyed.
