-  * When a producer cluster is deleted, Amazon Redshift deletes the datashares created by the producer cluster. When a producer cluster is backed up and restored, the created datashares still persist on the restored cluster. However, datashare permissions granted to other clusters are no longer valid on the restored cluster. Re-grant usage permissions of datashares to desired consumer clusters. The consumer database on the consumer cluster points to the datashare from the original cluster where the snapshot is taken. To query the shared data from the restored cluster, the consumer administrator creates a different database. Or the administrator can drop and recreate an existing consumer database to use the datashare from the newly restored cluster.

When a producer cluster is backed up and restored, the created datashares still persist on the restored cluster. If the restore is performed on the same serverless namespace, datashare permissions might be preserved.
