Hi,

The best way to implement your backup strategy is to use AWS Backup which is backup as a service: https://aws.amazon.com/backup/

I would suggest you to follow this how-to guide in details: https://aws.amazon.com/getting-started/hands-on/amazon-rds-backup-restore-using-aws-backup/

Best,

Didier

Thanks Didier, if we suppose we enabled the AWS RDS auto backups and configured the AWS backup, will it create any issues like LSN break.

is it good practice to enable only AWS backups with out AWS RDS auto backups?

  • Hi, when configured properly to keep all needed archives (full + incremental), AWS Backup should not create any issue like LSN breaks. My advice is to test your setup by restoring proactively on separate additional RDS instances. Thanks for accepting my answer!
