Is it possible to enable Cross-Region Automated Backup Replication using AWS PYTHON CDK or at worst Cloud Formation

Question

Summarizing, I'm looking for a way to enable in AWS, automated cross-region backup replication. This is not a question about Multi-AZ databases or Read-Replicas.

I've looked at the documentation and have not seen a way to do this using the Python CDK or at worst CloudFormation.

The overview of the task is Basic Description

The CLI appears to offer the ability to do this.

I've looked at Cloud Formation and CDK but did not see this ability.

Answer 1

Having researched the documentation thoroughly I have concluded this is not possible with the current offers; as of time of writing.

My solution for this was to implement custom cdk resources
