How do I prevent manually restored databases from being automatically deleted?

Context When manually restoring a database outside of Duplo, the system may automatically delete it if certain naming conventions are not followed. This can interrupt testing or development work that requires restored database instances. Answer There are two recommended approaches to prevent your manually restored databases from being automatically deleted: Restore the database through Duplo's interface This is the preferred method as it ensures proper tracking and management of the restored database Use the snapshot restoration feature available within Duplo If restoring outside of Duplo, avoid using the 'duplo' prefix in the database name Choose a database name that does not start with 'duplo' This prevents the automated cleanup process from targeting your restored database Best Practice: Always use Duplo's built-in restoration features when possible to ensure proper database management and avoid unexpected deletions.
