Can my schema registry also be backed up?

Section titled “Can my schema registry also be backed up?”

Yes! Schemas are stored on a topic (usually on _schemas), so they can also be backed up using a Backup.

What if I am using Confluent Cloud?

Section titled “What if I am using Confluent Cloud?”

Schema registries on Confluent Cloud are managed on separate Kafka clusters and the _schemas topic is not accessible.

For this use case, you can use the SchemaRegistryBackup and SchemaRegistryRestore resources, which use the Schema Registry API to back up and restore schemas.
