Backup and security settings

On the Additional Settings tab, you can specify the backup retention period and some security features.

Backups

Change the default database backup retention period of 30 days using the Retention Period controls in the Backups section. You can configure the retention period in days, weeks, or months. Set a retention period between 1 and 180 days, 1 and 25 weeks, or 1 and 6 months.

Security

You can encrypt your cluster's data, if required.

This option is available for EDB Postgres Advanced Server and EDB Postgres Extended Server for versions 15 and later.

Use the Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) toggle to enable TDE.

Note

You can't enable, disable, or modify the TDE configuration after the cluster is created.

You can set the following options:

Enter a Passphrase. This secures the data encryption key created by the Hybrid Manager with a passphrase when you create a TDE-enabled cluster.
If the administrator of your Hybrid Manager instance previously enabled a key from a key management system, you can also select Customer Key Management. Then select one of the configured keys to secure the data encryption key created by the Hybrid Manager.
