What Is the Backup Policy of FlexusRDS?

After you purchase a DB instance, click the instance name and go to the Backups & Restorations tab page. Automated backups and manual backups are available.

  • Automated backup is enabled by default. To save backup space and costs, automated backups are retained for seven days. At the end of this period, the automated backups will be deleted. If you want to retain backups for a longer time, create manual backups.
  • You can create manual backups as needed. Manual backups can be downloaded to your local PC. Manual backups will not be deleted even after seven days. You can restore data beyond seven days using manual backups.
  • Both automated and manual backups are stored on OBS and occupy the free OBS space.
  • FlexusRDS backup uses the open-source software extrabackup.
