The method of storing aws rds manual snapshot more than 100

41 Views Asked by At

Currently, the number of my manual snapshot is almost 100. And aws allows us to store up to 100 manual snapshots.

But I don't want to remove this snapshot. I want to keep longer for restoring in the future.

I can't find proper way. I need your advice. Here is my searching result.

  1. dump with xtrabackup and keep dump data in aws s3
  • Our data is bigger than 4 tb, we can't handle xtrabackup server about big data.
  • so this method doesn't work well to us.
  1. send to s3 button
  • there is a button named "send to s3"
  • but this button is not for restoring. As I know this is for data tools (like Athena...)
  • can't restore after stored in s3
  1. send to another account
  • make a new account, send manual snapshot to theirs.
  • I think this is a good way, but we need to make new account every 100, so I want to find a new way.

Is there any other method to store snapshot data? I don't care any method if we restore data to db instance(clusters.. anyway)

FYI : We are using Aurora DB (MySql 5.7)
