 If the database in your plan is not large enough to contain all the restored data, the restore operation will fail. This leaves the database only partially restored. If this occurs, you will need to upgrade your plan to increase the database size or restore a smaller database to ensure that the database is complete.

 ## Restoring After a Backup Fails{#restore-after-fail}
 
-If a backup restore fails, the failure is logged in your app's **Backup Activity** log, which you can view on the **Backups** page when you open your app in [Apps](https://sprintr.home.mendix.com/). If this happens, only data that was restored until the point of failure will be present in your database, leaving the database only partially restored.
+If a backup restore fails, the failure is logged in your app's **Backup Activity** log, which you can view on the **Backups** page when you open your [app](https://sprintr.home.mendix.com/).

-Your database must be large enough to hold the decompressed size of the database as stored in your backup file's [db folder](#db-folder), plus additional free space for overhead during the restoration process. For example, if you run your app in an S21 Cloud Resource Pack, then your database size is 10 GB. To restore a backup, the size of your decompressed database in the **db** folder must not exceed 7.75 GB to allow for 2.25 GB of overhead. 
+To ensure a successful restore, Mendix recommends that your database is large enough to hold the decompressed size of the database as stored in your backup file's [db folder](#db-folder), plus additional free space substantially exceeding this decompressed size to allow for overhead during the restoration process.
 
-While a minimum of 2.25 GB is often sufficient for smaller backups, the actual required free space varies significantly based on the backup's size. To ensure a successful restore, Mendix recommends that your database has free space substantially exceeding the decompressed backup size to accommodate the restoration process. For more information on the resource pack sizes Mendix offers, see [Cloud Resource Packs](/developerportal/deploy/mendix-cloud-deploy/#resource-pack). 
+For example, when restoring any app running in any of the available Mendix [Cloud Resource Packs](/developerportal/deploy/mendix-cloud-deploy/#resource-pack), the decompressed database in the **db** folder should not exceed 70% of the database size, reserving approximately 30% for overhead during restore.
