Backups are copies of your data that encapsulate the state of your cluster at a given time. Backups provide a safety measure in the event of data loss.
You must have the Project Owner role for an AtlasGov project to manage backups for or to restore a backup to clusters in that project.
Tip
AtlasGov user roles are the same as Atlas User Roles.
Restores between standard projects and Gov region-only projects are not allowed. If a backup is created from a cluster in a Gov region-only (AWS GovCloud or GCP Assured Workloads) project, the data can only be restored to a cluster in a Gov region-only project. The same restriction applies to standard projects, where backups in standard regions can only be restored to clusters in standard projects.
Cross-cloud restore is supported between AWS GovCloud and GCP Assured Workloads regions.
For a list of regions by cloud provider, see Supported Cloud Providers and Regions.
See the Atlas documentation to configure Cloud Backups
