I just started getting into self hosting using docker compose and I wonder about possible backup solutions.
I only have to safe my docker config so far, but I want host files as well.
What software and hardware are you using for backup?
Rsync to backblaze b2. I only backup the stuff I can’t download again (photos/docs etc). It’s the cheapest option and does version control automatically for me on a 12 hourly basis.
I then also once a week plug in my external SSD and it auto dumps changes to it via rclone.
Google drive/takeout etc are all done periodically and put into a folder that will roll into the above backups.
