At the moment, I have MySQL on the same instance as the my WordPress site, and must use RDS to solve a memory problem. But I must create backup of my entire site.<br />
<br />
Do I do this using my WP admin login? Does WP manage the database backup? Or do I need to export the script form the MySQL?<br />
<br />
And if I can not use the Admin Dashboard in WP, how do I make the backup in AWS?<br />
<br />
Thanks.
