 ## Next Steps
 
-Congratulations, you have successfully resharded your `customer` keyspace into two shards.

+Congratulations! You have successfully resharded your customer keyspace into two shards. Now, let's learn how to schedule backups of your Vitess cluster.
+
+* For Local Environment: If you are using a local machine, you can refer to the section on [Backups and Restore for Local Environmen](../../operating-vitess/backup-and-restore/backup_and_restore_local) to set up your backup schedule and perform restorations.
+
+* For Kubernetes Environment: If you are using Kubernetes, you can follow the instructions on [how to schedule backups](../../operating-vitess/backup-and-restore/scheduled-backups) to automate your backup processes.

+This guide follows on from the Get Started guides. Please make sure that you have
+an [local](../../../../get-started/local) installation ready. It also assumes
+that the [MoveTables](../../../migration/move-tables/) and [Resharding](../../../configuration-advanced/resharding) user guides have been followed (which take you through
+steps `101` to `306`).
+
+This guide is useful only if you are using Vitess in a local environment.

+## Backups
+
+If you are not already familiar with [how backups work](../overview/) in Vitess we suggest you familiarize yourself with them first.
+
+## Local Environment Backup Scheduling
+
+### Adding a Backup Schedule for Local Environment
+
+In this section, we will explain how to perform backups of the customer keyspace and its shards to ensure data protection. The backups will be stored locally on your machine. You can customize the script to change the backup location if needed.
+
+Run the script:
+```bash
+$ ./401_backup.sh
+```
+This will start the backup process for the customer keyspace and all its shards.
+
+Expected Output
+When you run the script, the following output can be expected:
+
+```bash
+Ensuring keyspace customer exists and shards are healthy...
+Backing up shard -80 in keyspace customer...
+...
+customer/-80 (zone1-0000000300): time:{seconds:1728639914 nanoseconds:403262115} file:"backup.go" line:152 value:"Starting backup 2024-10-11.094514.zone1-0000000300"
+...
+Backup succeeded for shard -80.
+...
+customer/80- (zone1-0000000401): time:{seconds:1728639980 nanoseconds:482699704} file:"backup.go" line:152 value:"Starting backup 2024-10-11.094620.zone1-0000000401"
+...
+Backing up shard 80- in keyspace customer...
+Backup succeeded for shard 80-.
+Backup process completed successfully for all shards in customer.
+```
+
+### Listing Backups
+
+Now we can list the available backups created in our local environment by executing the appropriate script or command. These backups are stored directly on your local machine (or VM), as defined in the configuration.
+
+Run the following command to list the available backups:
+``` bash
+./402_list_backup.sh
+```
+
+This will display the backups you’ve created. Each backup will be labeled according to the keyspace and shard it belongs to.
+
+Expected Output When you run the script, the following output can be expected:
+```bash
+Listing available backups for keyspace customer and shard -80...
+2024-10-11.094337.zone1-0000000302
+2024-10-11.094514.zone1-0000000300
+2024-10-11.094557.zone1-0000000302
+2024-10-11.094614.zone1-0000000300
+Listing available backups for keyspace customer and shard 80-...
+2024-10-11.094342.zone1-0000000402
+2024-10-11.094602.zone1-0000000402
+2024-10-11.094620.zone1-0000000401
+Backup listing process completed.
+```
+Since this is a local environment, the backups will be stored directly on your machine, and you can view them in the specified backup directory.
+
+For example, navigating to the directory:
+```bash
+cd /path/to/local/backup/directory
+ls -l
+```
+
+This will display a detailed list of backups stored locally, such as:
+```bash
+-rw-r--r-- 1 shail_pujan shail_pujan  45 Oct  1 14:02 commerce---20241001-140228.tar.gz
+-rw-r--r-- 1 shail_pujan shail_pujan  45 Oct  1 14:02 commerce---20241001-140253.tar.gz
+-rw-r--r-- 1 shail_pujan shail_pujan  45 Oct  1 14:02 customer-80--20241001-140228.tar.gz
+-rw-r--r-- 1 shail_pujan shail_pujan  45 Oct  1 14:02 customer-80--20241001-140253.tar.gz
+-rw-r--r-- 1 shail_pujan shail_pujan 116 Oct  1 13:54 mybackup_20241001_135413.tar.gz
+```
+Each backup directory contains the necessary data files that can be restored later.
+
+### Restore From Backup
+
+To restore your backups for the customer keyspace and its shards, you can use the provided script to easily initiate the restoration process. The backups will be restored from the local machine where they were saved.
+
+Run the script to initiate the restoration process:
+```bash
+./403_restore_from_backup.sh
+```
+This will start the restoration process for the customer keyspace and all its shards from the previously taken backups.
+
+Expected Output
+When you run the restore script, the following output can be expected:
+```bash
+Finding replica tablets for shard -80...
+Restoring tablet zone1-0000000300 from backup for shard -80...
+...
+customer/-80 (zone1-0000000300): time:{seconds:1728641586 nanoseconds:564470645} file:"restore.go" line:250 value:"Restore: original tablet type=REPLICA"
+...
+Finding replica tablets for shard 80-...
+Restoring tablet zone1-0000000401 from backup for shard 80-...
+...
+customer/80- (zone1-0000000401): time:{seconds:1728641929 nanoseconds:165948068} file:"restore.go" line:250 value:"Restore: original tablet type=REPLICA"
+...
+Restore process completed successfully for customer.
+```
+### Clean Up
+Congratulations! You have successfully completed the backup and restore process for your local Vitess environment.
+
+To clean up your local environment, you can remove the backup files created during this process by running:
+
+```bash
+rm ~/backups/*.tar.gz
+```
+This command will delete all backup archives, helping you maintain a clean workspace.
