AWS Backup and DR plans
This revision card explains AWS Backup and DR plans. It starts from the need that snapshots scattered across services are hard to prove and restore under stress. AWS Backup centralizes backup plans, vaults, and recovery points across AWS resources. The how-to section covers how to create vault , then plan with schedule/retention , then assign resources by tag , then test restore drills. An example on the card is nightly EBS+RDS backups with 35-day retain; quarterly restore test to a lab account.
