GCP Sql Admin Backup

A GCP SQL Admin Backup represents a point-in-time copy of a Cloud SQL instance that is managed through the Cloud SQL Admin API. Back-ups can be created on demand or generated automatically according to a schedule, and they allow you to restore an instance to the exact state it was in when the back-up was taken. Full details of the resource can be found in the official Google documentation for BackupRuns: https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql/admin-api/rest/v1/Backups

Possible Links​

gcp-cloud-kms-crypto-key​

If Customer-Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK) are enabled for the Cloud SQL instance, each back-up is encrypted with a specified Cloud KMS Crypto Key. Overmind therefore links a gcp-sql-admin-backup to the gcp-cloud-kms-crypto-key that protects its data, allowing you to trace encryption dependencies and assess the impact of key rotation or revocation.
