Data Backup

MongoDB Backup is an integrated solution that uses Veeam Backup & Replication mechanisms to back up data to the Veeam backup repository. With the configured application backup policy, you can create full and incremental backups. For details, see Backup Types.

For each backup operation, Veeam Backup & Replication automatically creates and stores database backup files. For the backup chain, Veeam Backup & Replication also creates a separate metadata file. The metadata file helps Veeam Backup & Replication to store and manage backup data while ensuring that the data is protected, accessible, and can be quickly restored when needed. All backup files created for backup policies reside in a dedicated folder in the backup repository. For details, see Backup Files.

To store backups, you can add and configure backup repositories to your Veeam Backup & Replication infrastructure. For details on supported backup repositories, see Veeam Backup Repositories.
