What are backup possibilities for DashDB with Bluemix?


We have an application on Bluemix that connects to a DashDB database. I could not find any mention of backup in the graphical interface.

  • Is it possible possible to get a full backup?
  • Does the service support backup automatically?

Any links to resources would be helpful. Thanks


Solution

  • Here is some info on backups

    For dashDB managed service: Encrypted backups on the full database are done daily. The last two backups are retained. Point-in-time restores are not available.
