AWS Backup is a backup service that’s completely manageable which is created to centralize and automate the backing up of data across AWS services both in AWS cloud as well as on-premises using AWS Storage Gateway. AWS Backup can be used to centrally configure backup policies and to monitor backup activity for AWS resources. AWS backup can be automated which helps to consolidate backup tasks that were performed before service-by-service, and also removes the need to create custom scripts and manual processes. With very few steps within the AWS Backup console, anyone can construct backup policies that automatically backup retention management and backup schedules. AWS Backup provides a managed, simplifying your backup management, policy-based backup solution, enabling you to satisfy your business need and regulatory backup compliance requirements
