How Can I Back Up an RDS for SQL Server Database to an ECS?

You can back up data to an ECS the same way you export SQL statements. The ECS service does not have restrictions on the types of data to be backed up as long as the data complies with local laws and regulations. You can store RDS backup data on an ECS, but using an ECS as the database backup space is not recommended.

You are advised to use RDS automated backup and manual backup to back up data to OBS for higher data reliability and service assurance.
