Performing Cosmos DB Restore Using Web UI

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure offers the following restore options:

  • Point-in-time restore — restores a Cosmos DB account from a timestamp to a new location.
  • Restore from repository — restores the database of a Cosmos DB for PostgreSQL account from a backup stored in a repository to the original or to a new location.

Important

Consider the following:

  • Due to Microsoft Azure limitations, Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure does not support restore of Cosmos DB accounts encrypted using customer-managed keys. For more information, see Microsoft Docs.
  • Due to Microsoft Azure limitations, when restoring a Cosmos DB for PostgreSQL account that has the geo-redundant backup capability enabled, you can restore this account to its primary region only. Consider that the restored account will have the capability disabled, and you will not be able to change this setting for the account. For more information, see Microsoft Docs.

You can restore Cosmos DB data to the most recent state or to any available restore point.
