🗂️ Opensolr Automated Backups: Peace of Mind on Autopilot

Never lose a byte! Opensolr’s backup manager keeps your data safe, secure, and easy to restore—because we know that “oops” moments happen.

🚀 How to Create & Manage Backups

Create a New Backup
You can do this from your Opensolr Control Panel UI, or programmatically via the Automation REST API.
Enable Daily Backups (NOT enabled by default!)
Be sure to click Start Daily Backup Schedule in your backup panel if you want your index backups to be automatically created every day. (Because who remembers to do this manually? Not us, and not you.)
For best practice, we recommend:
- Using a Production Opensolr Account for your live indexes (where you require backup management).
- Using a secondary Dev Account for your dev/test/QA/UAT environments.
- And of course, harnessing Team Management to connect your dev and prod teams as needed.
Restore with Confidence
Whether it’s your configuration files or a full index restore, it’s just a click away. Easy. Fast. Painless.
Know Your Retention Window
All backup data is kept on our servers for 7 days. Need it longer? Download what you need, when you need it.
Full Control, Your Way
You can always opt in (or out!) of the Opensolr Backup Manager on the pricing page.
Fully customize your order for the perfect fit—no extra baggage.
