[google-cloud-sql-discuss] Re: Cloud SQL external backups (postgres)

Hi,

Thanks. Is there a way to backup the databases to a storage bucket, instead of to the instance itself? Because now if I accidentally delete the intsance, everything is gone, unrestorable? 

Thanks

Hello Marcel, 

All data on an instance, including backups, is permanently lost when that instance is deleted. To preserve your data, export it to Cloud Storage before you delete it. You may gather more detail from the "Creating and Managing On-Demand and Automatic Backups" online document. 

Automated backups are based on a daily 4-hour window of preference. Alternatively, you may consider performing on-demand backups that you can trigger yourself. The "Creating and Managing On-Demand and Automatic Backups" page provides more insight.
