Backup and restore overview¶
NebulaGraph Cloud provides backup and restore capabilities to help you protect your data and recover from unexpected situations. You can create backups of your database instances and restore them to new clusters when needed.
Backup types¶
NebulaGraph Cloud supports two backup methods:
- Manual backup: You can create a backup at any time by clicking the Backup button. This is useful when you want to capture a snapshot before making significant changes to your database.
- Scheduled backup: You can configure automatic backups to run at regular intervals. This ensures your data is backed up consistently without manual intervention.
