Redis backups

Running instances are backed up automatically once a day, and the last 7 completed backups are kept. When the data matters (queues, session stores, rate-limit counters), also take a snapshot yourself before risky changes.

On-demand backup

Open the Backups tab and click Create Backup. The instance keeps serving traffic while the snapshot runs.

Restore

From the Backups tab, click Restore on any completed snapshot. The instance is rolled back to that snapshot, replacing current keys.

Two things to keep in mind:

• The instance must be running to restore.
• Restore replaces the entire keyspace. If you only want a few keys back, restore into a fresh instance instead and copy the keys over.
