If our EC2 instance contained application data, it would be necessary to schedule recurring backups to meet the target RPO. AWS Backup provides this functionality through a dashboard that makes it simple to audit backup and restores activity across AWS services. Since our instance contains no data, only code, we will create a one-time backup. Reoccurring backups are necessary for a production application every time a change occurs to the EC2 instance.
1.1 Click EC2 to navigate to the dashboard in the N. Virginia (us-east-1) region.
1.2 Click the Instances (running) link.
