Current backup approach
Primary environment
Production application and database services are hosted through AWS in Australia.
Independent recovery copy
Automated disaster-recovery backups are stored separately in Microsoft Azure’s Australia East region.
- nightly independent backups;
- approximately 24-hour target Recovery Point Objective (RPO) for the independent disaster-recovery backup layer;
- 24 daily recovery points;
- one monthly recovery point retained for 12 months;
- encrypted private backup storage;
- least-privilege access controls; and
- successful restoration testing into a fresh environment.
Backup and disaster-recovery settings can change as the service matures. Review the detailed Data backups page for the currently documented schedule.
