Amazon OpenSearch Serverless now supports backup and restore through the AWS Management Console. OpenSearch Serverless automatically backs up all collections and indexes in your account every hour and retains backups for 14 days. You can restore backups using either the API or the AWS Console. This feature is enabled by default and requires no configuration. For more information, see Working with snapshots in the Amazon OpenSearch Serverless Developer Guide.

Please refer to the AWS Regional Services List for more information about Amazon OpenSearch Service availability. To learn more about OpenSearch Serverless, see the documentation.
