Hi Experts,

I've configured an Azure database for PostgreSQL single server DB backup in azure backup vault using key vault and secret (which has DB credential), but is it feasible to configure PostgreSQL backup without DB credential in secret and utilizing manage identities?

Thanks

Veera.

Managed identities provide a secure way for your services or applications running in Azure to authenticate to various services without exposing credentials in your code or configuration.

Enable a managed identity for the service or virtual machine that needs to perform the backup. This can be done through the Azure portal, Azure CLI, or ARM templates. The managed identity will act as the authentication mechanism for your service.
