For the Database Administrator, Database Backup and Restore are common and routine activities.
In this post, I am sharing an important list of SQL Server System tables for finding the information related to Backup and Restore.
The MSDB stores all the information about the backup and restore.

Stores information about the all backed up data file and log file.

SELECT *FROM msdb.dbo.backupfile |

SELECT *FROM msdb.dbo.backupfilegroup |
backupmediafamily:
