+# Backup, restore, and PITR
+
+Timescale automatically handles backup and restore for all
+services using the `pgBackRest` tool. You don't need to perform
+backups for your Timescale service manually. 
+
+Timescale also offers self-initiated point-in-time recovery (PITR) in the console. 
+This allows you to fork a service to any point in the last 3 days in a 
+fork of the service being restored.

+# Point-in-time recovery
+
+Point-in-time recovery allows you to recover your database from a destructive 
+or unwanted action or change. Timescale allows you to perform a point-in-time 
+recovery of your service to any point in the last 3 days. Initiating a 
+point-in-time recovery of your service creates a fork of your service that
+matches the state of your database at the specified time of recovery. The 
+original service stays untouched to avoid losing data created since the 
+time of recovery. 
+
+Since the point-in-time recovery is done in a fork, to migrate your 
+application to the point of recovery, switch out the connection 
+strings in your application to use the fork. The provision time for the 
+recovery fork is typically less than twenty minutes, but can take longer 
+depending on the amount of WAL to be replayed. 
+
+To avoid paying for compute for the recovery fork and the original service, you 
+can pause the original to only pay storage costs.
+
+<Procedure>
+
+### Initiating a point-in-time recovery (PITR)
+
+1.  In the Timescale console, from the `Services` list, ensure the service
+    you want to PITR has a status of `Running` or `Paused`.
+1.  Navigate to the `Operations` tab.
+1.  In the `Service management` section, click `Create recovery fork`. In the 
+	creation page, select the time you would like to recover to, ensuring the 
+	correct time zone (UTC offset).
+1.  [](#)<Optional />You can also add an HA replica, change the compute, and 
+	add a connection pooler as part of this process. It is recommended to match 
+	the same configuration you had at the point you want to recover to.
+1.  Confirm by clicking `Create recovery fork`. A fork of the service is 
+	created to the point-in-time specified.
+1.  The recovered service shows in the `Services` dashboard with a label stating
+    which service it has been forked from.
+1.  If you would like to use your application to use the recovered fork, ensure 
+	you update your connection strings to the fork throughout your app.
