RDS Databases with automatic daily snapshot

Configure automatic daily snapshots of RDS databases for backup purposes.

Summary

This is a best practice. There will definitely be times where a migration fails and you will want to roll back to a previous known good dataset. You will also be asked by customers and SOC2 on how you manage backups of your data. Require RDS to auto snapshot daily for backup purposes.
