How Backup Works

Veeam Data Cloud for AWS uses the Amazon Redshift Serverless service to create a cloud-native backup of a Redshift Serverless namespace, and saves this backup in the same AWS Region in which the source namespace resides. The backup is assigned AWS tags upon creation. Keys and values of AWS tags contain encrypted metadata that helps Veeam Data Cloud for AWS identify the related namespace backup.
