The Data Protection feature in VantageCloud Enterprise allows you to create and edit backups, protect backups, set retention policies, specify the number of restore points, plan for disaster recovery, and restore data in the event of data corruption, data loss, or disaster recovery (DR) events.
You must be a site administrator to modify data protection information.
In Data Protection, there are two options for backing up and restoring your data:
Option | Description |
---|---|
Standard Backups | These are DSA based backups. They backup and restore tables, databases, and full system-level data. |
Snapshots | Backup and restore data at the full system level only. This is the preferred method for full-system backups for disaster recovery purposes. Use only for cases of serious data loss or a corruption event. A full system reset and restart is required.

- In the Vantage Console, you can perform these tasks:
- Create a new standard backup or snapshot job.
- Change a standard backup or snapshot job.
- Restore from a snapshot.
