Backup Operation
For creating a complete API Gateway data backup, you must create a backup of
*Assets data and Analytics data. You can create a backup of the assets and analytics manually or by scheduling a cron job. The frequency in which the assets and analytics data is backed up is different. So, they are taken in separate snapshots. For information on taking a backup of API Data Store, see Data Store Backup.
Software AG recommends that you automate the backup process.
*Platform Data. You can take a backup of the platform data using the apigatewayUtil script or manually take a backup of the configuration files. For more information on creating backup of the platform data, see Platform Data Backup.
Typically, there is no need to back up the platform data periodically as these are mostly one-time configurations required at the time of setup or provisioning. You can perform a file backup when there are changes. For details on restoring platform data, see Restoring Platform Data.
