Aws.Ec2.RedisDB.Backups.S3

Scripts to install Redis on EC2, generate RDB backups and upload them to S3, and restore them when needed. Includes steps to automate backups with cron.

Prerequisites 📄

Requirement	Details
EC2	Create an instance on AWS EC2
Type	Minimum t3.micro
Storage	Minimum 30 GB volume
OS	Ubuntu (e.g. 24.04 LTS)

Repository structure 🗂️

Folder	Description
1.InstallRedisDB.Ec2	Install Redis on the EC2 instance, configuration and checks.
2.GenerateBackup	Script and steps to generate the RDB backup and upload it to an S3 bucket.
3.RestoreBackup	Script and steps to download a backup from S3 and restore Redis.

Typical workflow 🚀

1. EC2 → Create an instance with the requirements above.
2. 1.InstallRedisDB.Ec2 → Install and configure Redis on the instance.
3. 2.GenerateBackup → Configure AWS CLI, adjust generate-backup.sh (bucket, environment) and run it (manually or via cron).
4. 3.RestoreBackup → When needed, use restore-backup.sh with the S3 path or local backup folder.

Automation with cron 🕒

Configure AWS CLI and the script on the instance (see 2.GenerateBackup/README.md), then schedule the script with absolute paths:

Environment	Frequency	Example crontab
Production	Daily	0 5 * * * /full/path/generate-backup.sh >> /var/log/redis-backup.log 2>&1
QA	Weekly (e.g. Friday)	0 5 * * 5 /full/path/generate-backup.sh >> /var/log/redis-backup.log 2>&1

Cron guide on Ubuntu: Crontab.Script.

Quick script usage 🛠️

Generate backup (default environment prd):

./generate-backup.sh           # prd
./generate-backup.sh qa        # other environment

Restore from S3:

./restore-backup.sh "s3://my-bucket/backups/prd/20250131120000/"

Restore from local folder:

./restore-backup.sh /backups/20250131120000 redis-backup-2025-01-31.rdb

Scripts para instalar Redis en EC2, generar backups del RDB y subirlos a S3, y restaurarlos cuando haga falta. Incluye pasos para automatizar backups con cron.

Requisitos previos 📄

Requisito	Detalle
EC2	Crear instancia en AWS EC2
Tipo	Minimo t3.micro
Disco	Volumen minimo 30 GB
SO	Ubuntu (p. ej. 24.04 LTS)

Estructura del repositorio 🗂️

Carpeta	Descripcion
1.InstallRedisDB.Ec2	Instalacion de Redis en la instancia EC2, configuracion y comprobaciones.
2.GenerateBackup	Script y pasos para generar el backup RDB y subirlo a un bucket S3.
3.RestoreBackup	Script y pasos para descargar un backup desde S3 y restaurar Redis.

Flujo general 🚀

1. EC2 → Crear instancia con los requisitos anteriores.
2. 1.InstallRedisDB.Ec2 → Instalar y configurar Redis en la instancia.
3. 2.GenerateBackup → Configurar AWS CLI, ajustar generate-backup.sh (bucket, entorno) y ejecutarlo (a mano o por cron).
4. 3.RestoreBackup → Cuando haga falta, usar restore-backup.sh con la ruta S3 o la carpeta local del backup.

Automatizacion con cron 🕒

Configurar AWS CLI y el script en la instancia (ver 2.GenerateBackup/README.md), luego programar el script con rutas absolutas:

Entorno	Frecuencia	Ejemplo crontab
Produccion	Diario	0 5 * * * /ruta/completa/generate-backup.sh >> /var/log/redis-backup.log 2>&1
QA	Semanal (ej. viernes)	0 5 * * 5 /ruta/completa/generate-backup.sh >> /var/log/redis-backup.log 2>&1

Guia de cron en Ubuntu: Crontab.Script.

Uso rapido de los scripts 🛠️

Generar backup (entorno por defecto prd):

./generate-backup.sh           # prd
./generate-backup.sh qa        # otro entorno

Restaurar desde S3:

./restore-backup.sh "s3://mi-bucket/backups/prd/20250131120000/"

Restaurar desde carpeta local:

./restore-backup.sh /backups/20250131120000 redis-backup-2025-01-31.rdb
