OpenShift APIs for Data Protection (OADP) enables the backup and restoration of workloads within Red Hat OpenShift clusters. Based on Velero, OADP supports various mechanisms like Restic, Kopia, CSI snapshots, and CSI dataMover for backing up persistent volumes. This guide demonstrates a basic disaster recovery scenario, detailing the setup of an S3-compatible storage, installation of the OADP operator, and performing backup and restoration of a sample database application in a namespace. Key steps include creating necessary YAML configurations and verifying backup data on the NooBaa S3 bucket.
