(dict) --
Specifies a scheduled task used to back up a selection of resources.
RuleName (string) --
An optional display name for a backup rule.
TargetBackupVaultName (string) --
The name of a logical container where backups are stored. Backup vaults are identified by names that are unique to the account used to create them and the AWS Region where they are created. They consist of lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens.
ScheduleExpression (string) --
