Description

Azure Cosmos DB will be adding the preview of point-in-time-restore (PITR) to its backup and restore capabilities in the upcoming months.

PITR will enable continuous backups of Azure Cosmos DB data and is useful in recovery scenarios, such as incidents caused by errors, incorrectly loaded data, accidental writes or deletion of crucial data. Data changes will be kept for 30 days and PITR can be enabled for new containers and accounts during the preview timeframe.
