# Disaster Recovery

{% hint style="info" %}
**Planning a disaster recovery strategy**

As of 2024.2 LTS, there is no longer a backup/restore mechanism built into the Immuta Enterprise Helm chart. Customers are now solely responsible for creating and enacting an effective disaster recovery strategy.
{% endhint %}

All application state is stored in the PostgreSQL metadata database; therefore, recovering from a disaster event only entails restoring the aforementioned PostgreSQL database. Consult each cloud provider's point-in-time recovery (PITR) documentation for guidance:

* [Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-backup/latest/devguide/point-in-time-recovery.html)
* [Azure Database for PostgreSQL](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/postgresql/flexible-server/concepts-backup-restore)
* [Google Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL](https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/backup-recovery/pitr)

For more details about point-in-time recovery, see the [PostgreSQL documentation](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/continuous-archiving.html).
