Instead of terming it "backup", won't "replication" be more appropriate?

  Technically, yes. But we figured the name "backup" is easier to remember, and this would allow us to add a bunch of other 'backup related' services later on :).

    But the difference between a "backup" and a db "replica" is important

    It is highly confusing. If i hadn't read the comments here i - after a first glaze - would have also thought this was "snapshot, backup and forget" service.
