Each database has a recovery policy for point-in-time, daily, weekly, and monthly retention. Inspect the recovery window before promising an RPO, and test restores instead of treating backup success as proof of recoverability.
Restores are asynchronous and create an isolated target. Promotion is a separate two-step operation: preview the binding swap to receive a one-use confirmation token, then submit the exact token and binding with explicit confirmation. Do not place the token in shell history; pass --data @file.json. Portable exports can target an organization-owned compatible object destination. Test the destination before starting an export, and account for transfer charges. See Backup destinations, exports, and restores.
