AWS Backup is a low-cost, fully managed, policy-based solution that makes data protection at scale even easier. AWS Backup also assists you in meeting your regulatory compliance duties and business continuity objectives. In this article, we&#8217;ll look at how to use the AWS Backup console to create an Amazon RDS backup and restore it. On the AWS Backup panel, we&#8217;ll also go over the various choices for creating on-demand backups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Refer to part 1 of the blog <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workfall.com\/learning\/blog\/how-to-create-on-demand-backups-and-restore-the-backup-for-amazon-rds-using-aws-backuppart-1\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Hands-on<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">In this hands-on, we will see how we can make use of the AWS Backup console to create a new role, choose an existing role, or select the default role for the backup job with just a few clicks. With AWS Backup, you can create backup policies called backup plans. You can use these plans to define your backup requirements, such as how frequently to back up your data and how long to retain those backups. By simply labeling your AWS resources, AWS Backup allows you to apply backup plans to them. The backup plan that you defined is then used by AWS Backup to back up your AWS resources automatically. Exploring the console and configuring the same, we will see how to create an on-demand backup job of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workfall.com\/learning\/blog\/how-to-do-database-migration-using-aws-database-migration-service-dms-from-on-premise-ec2-to-rds\/\">Amazon RDS database<\/a>, how to use a backup plan to backup Amazon RDS resources, and how to add resources to an existing backup plan using tags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/JqH6V_Y8Sm54_PLLbbEAQs3rs3xVsbLDq7SRYJs9O7i82Ipl_kqvXlOyK4YKeoqE7m4TQwt61X9MPFu-_51_NR5DZLXbTXXlJM5eAOZERNc2ffWPpMCRcN-mrmklZyLVicC5D7Th\" alt=\"AWS Backup\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To implement this, we will do the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Login to your AWS Account and navigate to the AWS RDS console.<\/li><li>Create a MySQL database that you wish to create a backup for.<\/li><li>Choose Easy Creation of the database creation method to quickly get started.<\/li><li>Navigate to the AWS Backup dashboard.<\/li><li>Automate Amazon RDS backup and restore.<\/li><li>Configure an on-demand AWS Backup job of an Amazon RDS database.<\/li><li>Create a new role, choose an existing role or select the default role for the backup job.<\/li><li>Create a new backup vault for your backup process.<\/li><li>Configure the services and toggle the resources you wish to backup.<\/li><li>Navigate to AWS Backup Plans and create a new backup plan for an Amazon RDS database.<\/li><li>Create a new role, choose an existing role or select the default role for the backup plan.<\/li><li>Assign resources to the backup plan.<\/li><li>Navigate to the backup faults and open the latest created backup.<\/li><li>Restore the backup of the Amazon RDS database.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigate to the AWS console and search for Amazon RDS.
