# Azure Cosmos DB for Apache Cassandra

You can use the Commvault software to back up and restore Azure Cosmos DB for Apache Cassandra database tables and keyspaces across multiple Azure accounts and regions. You can schedule full and incremental backups of tables and keyspaces to meet recovery point objectives (RPO), long-term retention, and compliance needs.

## Key Features

- You can manage tables and keyspaces from multiple Cosmos DB for Apache Cassandra accounts, all from the Command Center.

- You can back up and restore individual tables or keyspaces or the entire account.

- During backups and restores, if the primary access node is not accessible, you can automatically fail over the access node.

- For all backups and restores, you can change the access node.
