Hi,
I noticed the docs for the backup module state some outdated information. They say:
But the backups mentioned above are bound to the SQL instance. This means as soon as you delete the instance you are also losing your backups. To avoid this you can also export data. There is a second workflow doing exactly that.
This is not strictly true anymore. It is now possible to use Retain backups after instance deletion to set the instance backups to persist after the instance is deleted. See here for how to configure it.
It would probably be helpful to document this as an option, as well as the new (pre-GA) Enhanced Backups solution. These features are probably going to be better for most users than the backup module in this repo.
