Azure VM Backup policy
Hello Folks !!
Back with an update related to Azure VM updated policy of taking backup and snapshot !!
As we know Azure has the policy to take Snapshots and backup of the VM .
You can here found how we can proceed with backup - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-vms-first-look-arm
Azure has now introduced a new feature of Low recovery point objective .
Now what it is ?
It is the maximum amount of data that can be lost after a recovery from a disaster or failure . It determines the maximum age of data or files in storage needed to be able to meet the objective specified by the RPO, should a network or computer system failure occur.
With this you can define your duration , when the backup jobs will function and you can connect it with your working hours .
This can store data for 7 days and maximum for 30 day's . This enable's minimum data loss and storage of data . You can create a policy in the recovery service vault's and configure the backup and snapshot of the virtual machine.
Thanks ..
