HAQM Relational Database Service (HAQM RDS) on AWS Outposts now supports creating backups locally on AWS Outposts with HAQM S3 support. You can create backups of your HAQM RDS databases running on AWS Outposts to the same Outpost or to the AWS Region of your Outpost, allowing you to maintain your data residency requirements while giving you flexibility for maintaining your data recovery solutions. CloudFormation support will be coming soon.
In your monthly bill, HAQM RDS backups to an Outpost are billed the same as backup storage in an AWS region. This means that there is no additional charge for backup storage, up to 100% of your total database storage, within a region including all of the Outposts you have associated with for that region.
For more information, see the HAQM RDS on Outposts Pricing page and our RDS Outposts documentation. Get started backing up your HAQM RDS database instances on Outposts on the HAQM RDS Management Console.
