ARM templates

Hi,
- we have a lot of pipelines in the synapse workspace.
- using serverless sqlpool which is set to online
- dedicated sql pool is paused as we do not use it to hold data...
- using DevOps Repository
- the support team will be making some clean-up in the environment. i.e. Running an old terraform to re-create the environment, etc.
How is it possible to make sure that

Question:
How can we make sure that if in-case something gets lost/ or goes wrong during the workspace clean-up, we will be able to get everything back...?

Thank you

Hello @arkiboys

Let me break down "everything" in "get everything back".

There is data ... files, blobs, tables. These are not covered by the DevOps Repository.

There are definitions ... pipelines, notebooks, spark jobs, linked services. These are covered by the DevOps Repository.

Anything that is covered by the DevOps Repository is easy to get back.

There are pools, dedicated sql, spark pool. I'm unsure whether those are covered by the DevOps Repository. Need to double-check

Hello,
The ones which are not covered by the DevOps, i.e. blob storage, how is it best to back them up? by saving the jason ARM Templates somehow?
Thank you

If it has a json template, then it is covered by DevOps.

DevOps stores copies of all the json templates.

Hello,
How is it possible to save blob storage folder so that just in-case they are changed or removed we can get them back?
Thank you

In what context?

In the context of your storage account, you would need to turn on soft-delete and/or versioning. That has nothing to do with ADF or json template or ARM.
