Backup and recovery

A recoverable Railbase estate includes the Vault snapshot, configured file storage, private secrets and the operating configuration needed to restore the same Suite environment.

Minimum practice

• take consistent Vault snapshots on a documented schedule;
• copy file storage using the same recovery point;
• keep secrets and encryption keys in a protected recovery store;
• maintain at least one off-host/off-site copy;
• define retention and deletion periods;
• test restoration on a separate environment;
• record recovery-point and recovery-time results;
• repeat the drill after material changes.

A backup that has never been restored is not verified recovery evidence.

Shared responsibility

The customer controls private-estate backups unless an Order explicitly assigns managed backup duties. railbase.app has its own control-plane backup programme; that does not replace backup of customer operating data.
