[Question/Feedback]: Should we create a new shared interface for backup association/enablement? about azure-verified-modules HOT 7 OPEN

Azure Files, Azure Blob, Azure SQL, Azure Postgre SQL - theres quite a few now https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-overview#what-can-i-back-up

At least worth a spike

I think that this can be valuable.

What scenario would this be valuable for outside a VM?

Could this just be added to VM?

Next steps on this one are, we agree it COULD be a good idea but needs some real-world testing:

• Create draft schema/specs for it (we may find its not feasible, thats fine)
• Publish to AVM specs site and list as DRAFT
• Await feedback from module owners and consumers and make decision at point in future when used

Leaving open for now to see if there's demand for it

from azure-verified-modules.

As there were some internal conversations about this topic in the last couple of weeks, the AVM core team will finalize the discussion and document the decision here.

from azure-verified-modules.

Decision/summary: this feature (interface for backup association) will be implemented with low priority, as an "experimental" interface - i.e., it will be expected to change after the first version.

Note: this feature is solely focused on the association and NOT inclusive of creating the RSV itself, and/or configuring schedules inside of it.
