1/5⌚✅be able to recover to a point-in-time beyond the last backup (any point-in-time within the retention)
2/5⏱️✅enable automatic backups (and be warned if not). They occur during the defined window but do not block the database activity. And RDS takes an initial backup at creation.
3/5🦺✅ prevent accidental deletion of an instance (remember in case of sh.t happening, you are in stress and can make things worse)
4/5🪓✅do not delete the backups
when terminating the DB service (or be strongly warned) because backups also protects for accidental drop

5/5💾✅and at least keep a snapshot when you delete the instance and backups (snapshots are not backup, but it is ok for a terminated instance)
