me actually.
this is pretty good.
Jokes apart.
A simple bash script takes a full tar snapshot of the system. For databases like MySQL, it excludes the raw data folders from the tar and instead uses xtrabackup or mysqldump.
These backups are then stored in Hetzner SB with a retention strategy: keep the last 14 days of backups, and then one backup per month for up to 1 year.
For DR, we keep the last 7 days of backups in Wasabi or AWS (mixed).
Proxmox
Maintain? Like feed them?
Oh man mine must all be dead
Local backup + remote ftp + jetbackup or backuply
Proxmox backup server in 3 different locations
Usually the service providers.
rsync vaultwarden data to another place, and use a script to sync to Microsoft onedrive periodically
We have all the code up in GitHub or Bitbucket, so that we don't need backups.

@emgh I'm really impressed. You deserve a new additional member tag: "backup and restore guru".
Tyler Durden?
Thanks!
I'll start a petition & a gofundme
Should be few years (2-3) which is fine
Raid is my backup
For work, we run everything on Kubernetes and use Velero to take regular backups. Velero saves backups to both Cloudflare R2 and Storj, just to be safe. For our Postgres databases, we use CloudNativePG, which handles its own backups and also archives WAL logs to Cloudflare R2. On top of that, we do full database dumps every hour and store them in both Cloudflare R2 and Storj.
For my personal servers, I use Restic to manage backups and send them to iDrive e2 and Storj. When it comes to my Macs, I use Time Machine with a NAS, and I also use Carbon Copy Cloner to back up to a USB drive I keep nearby. For offsite backups of my Macs, I use Arq with iDrive e2 and Storj as the backup locations.
I test ALL restores every 2-3 weeks.
Why should I maintain backups?
Several of you upload your unencrypted backups to low-end providers. I can just download one of those.
(Disaster recovery is like Christmas. You never know what’s in the packages.)
YOLO!
You beat me to it. Sad day. No happiness.
