Performing DynamoDB Backup

One backup policy can be used to process one or more DynamoDB tables within one AWS account. The scope of data that you can protect in an AWS account is limited by permissions of an IAM role that is specified in the backup policy settings.

Note

If you plan to receive email notifications on backup policy results, configure email notification settings before creating a DynamoDB backup policy. For more information, see Configuring Global Notification Settings.

To schedule data protection tasks to run automatically, create backup policies. For each protected DynamoDB table, you can also take a backup manually when needed.

Important

  • Veeam Backup for AWS supports backup of DynamoDB tables only to the same AWS accounts to which the source tables belong.
  • Veeam Backup for AWS supports backup of only those DynamoDB table properties that are described in section Protecting DynamoDB Tables.
