Overview

DDS supports DB instance backups and restorations to ensure data reliability.

Automated Backup

Automated backups are created during the backup time window of your DB instances. DDS saves automated backups based on the backup retention period you specified. If necessary, you can restore data to any point in time during the backup retention period.

Manual Backup

Manual backups are user-initiated full backups of DB instances. They are retained until you delete them manually.

Full Backup

Full backup is to back up all selected data, even if no data is updated since the last backup.

Incremental Backup

DDS automatically backs up data updated since the last automated or incremental backup every five minutes.

Restoration Task Historical Records

You can view the task execution time and historical records on the Task Center page. For details, see Tasks Overview.

Backup Space Billing

DDS backups are stored in OBS buckets. For details about the billing policy, see Pricing Details.
