Policy: AWS > Well-Architected Tool > AWS Well-Architected Framework > Reliability > REL 09. How do you back up data? > Identify and back up all data that needs to be backed up, or reproduce the data from sources

Amazon S3 can be used as a backup destination for multiple data sources. AWS services such as Amazon EBS, Amazon RDS, and Amazon DynamoDB have built in capabilities to create backups. Third-party backup software can also be used. Alternatively, if the data can be reproduced from other sources to meet RPO, you might not require a backup

See Identify and back up all data that needs to be backed up, or reproduce the data from sources for more information.
