Backup Methods

There are two types of backups: automatic backup and manual backup.

Automatic Backup

Automatic backup is performed once a week from 0:00 to 1:00 by default.

The backup data keeps the latest 7 versions, with a maximum retention period of 30 days. If you need to keep the backup data for longer, please download and save it yourself.

Manual Backup

PostGreSQL supports manual backup. Users can save important data backups at some key time points. When creating a manual backup, users only need to enter the name of the backup, and the backend will start the backup process immediately.

Manual backup are allowed to keep the latest 3 copies. If the number exceeds 3, the earliest manual backup will be automatically deleted. The backup data has a maximum retention period of 30 days. If you need to keep the backup data for a longer period, please download and save it yourself.
