# Backup and restore
2+
Timescale Cloud has a range of automated backup and restore mechanisms. All
3+
automated backups in Timescale Cloud are created using the `pgbackrest` tool.
4+
There is no need for you to manually perform backups for your Timescale Cloud
5+
service.
6+
7+
Timescale Cloud automatically creates one full backup every week. We also create
8+
incremental backups every day, which store any changes since the last full
9+
backup. The two most recent full backups are stored securely on an Amazon S3
10+
service, along with the most recent incremental backups, and a write-ahead log
11+
(WAL) of all the changes that have occurred. This means that you always have a
12+
backup for the current and the previous week, and we can restore your backup to
13+
any point during that timeframe.
14+
15+
When you delete an instance, we retain a backup of the instance for seven days.
16+
17+
If you need to restore your database from a backup, please
18+
[contact support][support].
