Bring Your Own Backup Bucket
· 3 min read
Backups are the one copy of your data you hope you never need and cannot afford to get wrong. Until now, FoundryDB wrote them to storage we manage for you, which is the right default for most people. But if you have a data-residency requirement, an existing object-storage account you already audit, or a compliance rule that says backups live in a bucket you control, "the right default" is not enough. Now you can point a service's backups at your own S3-compatible bucket. We call it bring your own backup bucket, and it is live today.
