 The solution gives you granular control. You can back up or restore a specific namespace or an entire cluster by storing backups locally in a blob container and as disk snapshots.

 AKS backup uses managed identity to access other Azure resources. To configure the backup of an AKS cluster and to restore from an earlier backup, the Backup vault's managed identity requires a set of permissions on the AKS cluster.

 Extending backup retention from 35 days to 10 years can help your organization meet compliance and regulatory requirements.

In addition to long-term retention, this feature enhances backup resiliency by protecting the source data from different levels of data loss, such as accidental deletions and ransomware.
