Terraform module to provision AWS Backup, a fully managed backup service that makes it easy to centralize and automate the back up of data across AWS services such as Amazon EBS volumes, Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon RDS databases, Amazon DynamoDB tables, Amazon EFS file systems, and AWS Storage Gateway volumes.
Note
The syntax of declaring a backup schedule has changed as of release 0.14.0
, follow the instructions in the 0.13.x to 0.14.x+ migration guide.
Warning
The deprecated variables have been fully deprecated as of 1.x.x
. Please use the new variables as described in the 0.13.x to 0.14.x+ migration guide.
Tip
Cloud Posse uses atmos
to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.
Watch demo of using Atmos with Terraform
Example of running
atmos
to manage infrastructure from our Quick Start tutorial.
For a complete example on how to backup an Elastic File System (EFS), see examples/complete.
For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest
(which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see test

or as yaml
rules:
- name: "plan-daily"

start_window: 320 # 60 * 8 # minutes
completion_window: 10080 # 60 * 24 * 7 # minutes
delete_after: 35 # 7 * 5
Important
In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.

additional_tag_map | Additional key-value pairs to add to each map in tags_as_list_of_maps . Not added to tags or id .This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration. |
map(string) |
{} |
no |
advanced_backup_setting | An object that specifies backup options for each resource type | object({ |
null |
