Restoring from a graph snapshot - Neptune Analytics

Restoring from a graph snapshot

When you create a snapshot of a graph, Neptune Analytics creates a storage volume snapshot of the graph, backing up all of its data. You can later create a new Neptune Analytics graph by restoring from this snapshot. When you restore the graph, you provide the name of the graph snapshot to restore from, and then provide a name for the new graph that is created by the restore.

CLI/SDK

Restore an analytics graph from a snapshot

aws neptune-graph restore-graph-from-snapshot \
--graph-name <NEW_GRAPH_NAME> \
--snapshot-id <SNAPSHOT_ID>

Parameters:

  1. graph-name - The name of the new Neptune Analytics graph that will be created from the snapshot.

  2. snapshot-id - The snapshot identifier you want to restore from.

Optional parameters:

  1. min-provisioned-memory - The minimum provisioned memory to use for the new graph. Default: 64.

  2. max-provisioned-memory - The maximum provisioned memory to use for the new graph. Default: 1024, or the approved upper limit for your account. Neptune Analytics will analyze the data to find the best memory configuration between min-provisioned-memory and max-provisioned-memory to create the graph.

  3. public-access, no-public-access - Whether connectivity over public networks (internet) is enabled or not. Default: no-public-access.

  4. replica-count - The number of replicas to provision on the new graph after import. Default: 0, Min: 0, Max:2.
