Table: oci_core_volume_backup - Query OCI Core Volume Backups using SQL

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Core Volume Backup is a service that provides automated backups of block volumes. The backups are crash-consistent and can be used to create new volumes or restore existing volumes. This service ensures data durability and protection for your OCI resources.

Table Usage Guide

The oci_core_volume_backup table provides insights into volume backups within OCI Core. As a system administrator, explore backup-specific details through this table, including backup size, status, and associated metadata. Utilize it to uncover information about backups, such as those that are available, the ones that are in progress, and the verification of backup policies.
