Question: How resilient is DynamoDB?
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
Answer
Data stored within DynamoDB is highly resilient, with the DynamoDB natively supporting the following features:
- On-demand backup and restore: DynamoDB supports on-demand full backups of tables for long-term archival and retention capabilities.
- Point-in-time recovery: This feature enables users to protect DynamoDB tables from accidental deletion or write operations. It allows restoring tables to any point in the last 35 days.
- Multiple Availability Zones: This feature allows almost real-time data replication in multiple availability zones to protect them in the event of a catastrophic data center failure.
