Redis Backups

Automatic backups are created for all Redis clusters by default. As per Redis cluster topology, each node is either a master or a replica, but not both. Hence only master node data is backed up. By default, all master nodes will perform a snapshot backup once every 24 hours. This frequency can be modified in the Backup Settings Tab.

You can also trigger a backup manually:

  1. You can do this by going to the Backup / Restore tab of your cluster.
    Select the "Backup / Restore tab" for your cluster in the cluster list
  2. Then press the Start Backup button. This will begin the process of a snapshot backup across the master nodes of the cluster.
    In the Backup tab press the Start Backup button

For information on how to use a backup to restore your Redis Cluster, please refer to our Restoring a Cluster support documentation page.
