Restoring RDS Aurora Serverless Postgres Cluster Using AWS Backup Recovery Points

<p>In this post, we&rsquo;ll see how we can restore a RDS Aurora Serverless Postgres Cluster using AWS Backup Recovery Points.</p> <p><strong>Prerequisite:&nbsp;</strong>You should already have a RDS Aurora Serverless Postgres Cluster running with backups enabled using AWS Backup.</p> <p>At least 1 backup recovery point for your RDS cluster should be available in AWS Backup.</p> <p><strong>Step 1:&nbsp;</strong>Go to AWS Backup and under protected resources, select the cluster you want to restore. Select a recovery point and click Restore.</p> <p>Provide a value for DB cluster identifier and select same VPC,Subnet Group and DB cluster parameter group as of your original RDS cluster.</p> <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>&nbsp;Once the restore job is successful you&rsquo;ll see your cluster as Available but reader/write endpoint will be in Creating state.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*0t3XBV68X4tgww63pLv1bQ.png" style="height:147px; width:700px" /></p> <p>This is because &ldquo;AWS Backup restores your Aurora cluster; it does not create or attach an Amazon RDS instance to your cluster&rdquo;.
