I have some long running processes that do very long simulations which

At the moment sometimes there are network problems and we end up with
half the data on the database.
The half-data problem is probably solved easily with sessions and
sqlalchemy (a db-transaction), but still we would like to be able to
keep a backup SQL file in case something goes badly wrong and we want to
re-run it manually..
This might also be useful if we have to rollback the db for some reasons
to a previous day and we don't want to re-run the simulations..
Anyone did something similar?
It would be nice to do something like:
with CachedDatabase('backup.sql'):
# do all your things
I'm now starting to do something similar, but in C, not Python.
Apparently not using SQL.
The simulations this is for often last a month or more.
