TiDB Cloud Backup & Restore features are designed to safeguard your data and ensure business continuity by enabling you to back up and recover cluster data.

## Snapshot backup

Snapshot backup is an implementation to back up the entire cluster. It is based on [multi-version concurrency control (MVCC)](/tidb-storage.md#mvcc) and backs up all data in the specified snapshot to a target storage. The size of the backup data is approximately the size of the compressed single replica in the cluster.

## Automatic backup

For both TiDB Cloud Serverless and TiDB Cloud Dedicated clusters, snapshot backups are taken automatically by default and stored according to your backup retention policy.

## Log backup
For more information, see the following:

Snapshot backup contains the full cluster data at a certain point, while TiDB log backup can back up data written by applications to a specified storage in a timely manner.

If you want to choose the restore point as required, that is, to perform point-in-time recovery (PITR), note the following:

- For TiDB Cloud Serverless clusters, PITR is available only for scalable clusters and not available for free clusters.
- For TiDB Cloud Dedicated clusters, you need to [enable PITR](/tidb-cloud/backup-and-restore.md#turn-on-point-in-time-restore) in advance.
