OneLake Backup

Hello, 

 

I am looking for details on how often a backup of the Fabric OneLake is taken? I remember seing an article about backups, but I cant find it anymore. I am not talking about disaster recovery or business continuity. Please send me the URL to the article if you find it, in addition find the URL to availability.

      'm wondering if OneLake database is backed up. Today at my job, we backup database daily and keep a copy for a week in case database needs to be restored. In the case if there is a terrible loading issue and data gets corrupted. Is a backup available to restore data to a point of time. i.e. a couple of days back

        Hi AB_34 
        OneLake has file level soft-delete but we don't take any backups. If the data is in a warehouse, then they might be storing versions/backups on top of OneLake.

    Thanks for taking the time to respond. To clarify we are currently not using OneLake but are transitioning to the fabric/onelake environment, we are as a team learning what the best practices for OneLake would be. Is there any official documentation you can point me towards that discusses how we would restore data to a specific point in time ?

     

    Thanks you !
