Two components that are installed on the target cluster when VMware Tanzu Mission Control Data Protection is enabled are Velero and data protection extension. VMware Tanzu Mission Control Data Protection is a feature that allows users to backup and restore Kubernetes resources and persistent volumes across clusters using a centralized management platform6. To enable data protection for a cluster, users need to install Velero and data protection extension on the cluster7. Velero is an open source tool that performs backup and restore operations using custom resource definitions and controllers6. Data protection extension is a component that enhances Velero’s functionality by providing additional features such as backup scheduling, retention policy, backup hooks, restore hooks, and backup encryption8.
