AMS backup plans define how frequently your data is backed up and the retention policy for your backups. AMS backup vaults keep your backup data organized. Once a resource is associated with a backup plan, compatible resources are incrementally backed up. The first backup is a full copy and subsequent backups capture incremental changes. Depending on the resource and AMS backup plan selected, Point-in-time restore (PITR) allows you to rewind your resources by selecting a time for your recovery. To get started with AMS Backup Management, simply select an AMS backup plan and tag your resources.
