Cloud backup is a method of safeguarding data by storing its backups in a cloud computing environment. The purpose is to shield the data from physical damage, corruption, or loss. Cloud backup solutions bring several advantages over traditional on-premises backup systems, such as scalability, reliability, and ease of use.
We primarily use the solution for cloud backups and to have the flexibility to move what we have around as needed (for example, to secondary sites).
The primary use case of this solution is for backing up EC2 instances and RDS instances.
