Backup SQL Server via C#

Question

How easy is it to backup a SQL Server database via C# code?

I see lots of related questions, but no real answers.

Answer 1

Or: Generate your backup script in Management Studio, put it in a stored procedure, run procedure from C# code.

CREATE PROCEDURE sp_backup
AS
BEGIN
    BACKUP DATABASE [YourDatabase] TO  DISK = N'C:\YourPathAndFile.bak' 
    WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT,  
    NAME = N'Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD,  STATS = 10
END
GO
