IT leadership wants one place to define backup plans and retention across supported AWS resources instead of configuring each service separately. Which service centralizes that backup management?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Instead of babysitting backups service by service, AWS Backup is the shared clipboard for plans, schedules, and retention across supported resources. One policy brain, many resource types—much cleaner for citywide backup governance.
Full Explanation
AWS Backup centralizes backup policy management, scheduling, and retention across multiple supported AWS services and resources. Organizations use it to standardize protection instead of configuring disjoint native snapshot features alone. CloudWatch, Config, and EventBridge may observe or trigger automation but are not the purpose-built centralized backup management service.
