Which Resources Are Protected?
Backup covers instances, Block Storage volumes and Kubernetes PVC resources. Schedule, retention and restore target are set in the panel for each resource type.
Cloud Backup and Restore Points
Back up servers, volumes and Kubernetes data from the panel and restore them when you need to
Regions: tr-ist-01 (İstanbul) · tr-ank-01 (Ankara).
A snapshot of the protected resource is taken and placed on the timeline.
The schedule and retention decide which snapshots are kept and for how long.
When something goes wrong, the moment to return to is chosen from the timeline.
The chosen moment is brought up as a new volume or instance; the original resource is left untouched.
Answer
What is Backup?
Backup is the cloud backup service for virtual servers, volumes and Kubernetes PVCs. You take the backup in the panel and restore it there.
Cost depends on protected resource capacity, job frequency and retention period, copy and restore data movement. Review the current estimate in the cost calculator.Calculate Cost
Live capacity and quota depend on the selected resource; service level terms are explained on the SLA page.

How it works
How the infrastructure works
Snapshots and Backup
A snapshot is a point-in-time image of your volume, used for a fast rollback. Backup schedules and stores copies of your servers, volumes and Kubernetes PVC resources, then restores the point you choose from the panel. Use Backup for lasting protection.
Frequency, Retention and Restore
You set backup frequency and retention to match the work. Restore starts from the panel; the time depends on data size and the point you select.
Scope, Responsibility and Cost
Backup cost depends on source capacity, copy count, retention, job frequency and data movement. You can see current prices in the cost calculator.
Scenarios
Use Cases
