Using cloud native approach to organize data protection
summary
Canister (CNCF sandbox) provides a Kubernetes-native backup framework that actually builds and runs multi-phase backups using blueprints drive multi-phase backups, executes them on cluster runners, and stores artifacts to object storage (demo uses RDS → S3). Installation is a Helm chart; backups create action sets as operation logs with phase-level status and artifact names, and a follow-up restore recreated a dropped table from the recorded artifact, proving the workflow works end to end.
