DynamoDB Restore Using Web UI

In case of a disaster, you can restore a DynamoDB table from a DynamoDB backup or backup copy. Veeam Backup for AWS allows you to restore one or more DynamoDB tables at a time, to the original location or to a new location. To learn how DynamoDB restore works, see DynamoDB Restore.

Important

Veeam Backup for AWS supports restoring DynamoDB tables only to the same AWS account where the source tables reside.

Veeam Backup for AWS supports restoring only those DynamoDB table properties that are described in section Protecting DynamoDB Tables.
The AWS Backup service does not support copying DynamoDB cloud-native backups stored in a cold storage tier to another AWS Region. These means that you will only be able to use these backups to restore tables to the same AWS Region in which the backups reside after being transitioned from a warm storage tier.

How to Perform DynamoDB Restore

To restore a protected DynamoDB table, do the following:

Launch the DynamoDB Restore wizard.
Select a restore point.
Specify account settings for restore.
Choose a restore mode.
Enable encryption for the restored table.
Configure table settings.
Choose capacity mode for the restored table.
Specify a restore reason.
Finish working with the wizard.
