Amazon Redshift takes automatic, incremental snapshots of your data periodically and saves them to
Amazon S3. Additionally, you can take manual snapshots of your data whenever you want.This section
explains how to manage your snapshots from the Amazon Redshift console. For more information about
snapshots, see Amazon Redshift Snapshots (p. 82).
All snapshot tasks in the Amazon Redshift console start from the snapshot list.You can filter the list by
using the snapshot type, a time range, and the cluster associated with the snapshot. When you select
an existing snapshot, the snapshot details are shown inline in the list, as shown in the example following.
Depending on the snapshot type that you select, you will have different options available for working with
the snapshot.
