But it is! That's exactly how you -- and IIRC *the only* way to -- backup
SQL Server databases (typically from Agent, which is like pg_cron but much
more featureful, and completely integrated into SSMS and SQL Server).
Every CLI or GUI method of doing a backup calls BACKUP DATABASE and/or
BACKUP LOG behind the scenes.
