- Backups tab: see the list, make a backup yourself, and click Restore.
- Backup storage is charged by the size kept per month. Keep fewer backups if you want to save money.
- Backups you make yourself are kept for 90 days, then deleted. You’re warned by email and in the bell 7 days before. Click Extend 90 days to keep one longer: it’s free, as often as you like.
- A database’s backups are deleted together with the database.
- To restore without touching the database you have, use Restore to a new database, and turn on point-in-time recovery to restore to any second (see High availability and point-in-time recovery).
If something goes wrong
It says “ต้องเริ่มฐานข้อมูลก่อนสั่ง Backup” (Start the database before making a backup)
The database is stopped. Start it first, then try again.
It says “This backup can’t be restored from the console — open a ticket”
Our team needs to restore this backup for you. Open a ticket with the database name and the time of the backup.
I can’t delete the database
First unlink it from every container, and delete or promote all read replicas. If Deletion protection is on, turn it off in the settings first.
