btrfs send/receive to my NAS.

I use duplicacy to backup to my local NAS and to Storj.io. In case of a fire I'm always able to restore my files. Storj.io is cheap, easy to access from any location and your files are stored and duplicated on multiple different locations.

I have used duplicity before but restoring from a new installation takes a while, as duplicity has to reanalyze the storage.

Using ESXi as a hypervisor , so I rely on Veeam. I have copy jobs to take it from local to an external + a copy up to the cloud.

rsnapshot

A simple script using duplicity to FTP data on my private website with infinite storage. I can't say if it's good or not. It's my first time doing it.

Proxmox backs up the VMs -> backups are uploaded to the cloud.

My home servers a windows box so I use Backblaze which has unlimited storage for a reasonable fixed price. Have around 11TB backed up. Pay the extra few dollars for the extended 12 month retention of deleted files, which has saved me a few times when I needed to restore a file I couldn’t find.

Locally I run stablebit DrivePool and content is mirrored and pooled using that, which covers me for drive failures.

I've recently begun using duplicati to backup the data from my docker containers and VMware snapshots for the guest VM itself, just currently struggling to understand how to automate the snapshots yet so I do them manually

TrueNAS zfs snapshots, and then a weekly Cron rsync to a servarica VPS with unlimited expanding storage.

Almost all the services I host run in docker container (or userland systemd services). What I back up are sqlite databases containing the config or plain data. Every day, my NAS rsyncs the db from my server onto its local storage, and I have Hyper Backup backup the backups into an encrypted S3 bucket. HB keeps the last n versions, and manages their lifecycle. It's all pretty handy!

I have an rsync script that pulls a backup every night from my truenas server to my Synology.

I've been thinking about setting up something with rsync.net so I have a cloud copy of my most important files.

ZFS array using striping and parity. Daily snapshots get backed up to another machine on the network. 2 external hard drives with mirrors of the backup rotate between my home and office weekly-ish.

I can lose 2 hard drives from the array at the same time without suffering data loss. Any accidentally deleted files can be restored from a snapshot if my house is hit by a meteor I lose maximum of 3-4 days of snapshots.

rsync + borg, but looking at bupstash

Kopia to Backblaze B2 is what I generally use for off-site backups of my devices. Borg's another good option to look at, but not as friction-less in my experience. There are a couple of additional features that are available in Kopia that are nice to have and are not in Borg (i.e. error correction, file de-duplication) from what I recall. edit: borg does do de-duplication

I’m backing up my stuff over to Storj DCS (basically S3 but distributed over several regions) and it’s been working like a charm for the better part of a year. Quite cheap as well, similar to Backblaze.

For me the upside was I could prepay with crypto and not use any credit card.

Not what you mean but I use BDR shadow protect and Datto. Depending on customers budget.

For my webserver, mysqldump to a secured folder, then restic backup the whole /svr folder, then rsync the restic backup to another server. Also have a system that emails me if these things don't happen daily. The log files are uploaded to a url, the log file is checked for simple errors, and if no file is uploaded in time, email.

Of course, in my case, the url files are uploaded to - and the email server... are the same server I'm backing up... but at least if that becomes a problem, I probably only need the backups I've already made to my second server.

It’s kind of broken at the moment, but I have set up duplicity to create encrypted backups to Bacblaze B2 buckets.

Of course the proper way would be to back up to at least 2 more locations. Perhaps a local NAS for starters. Also could be configured in duplicity.

dont overthink it.. servers/workstations rsync to a nas, then sync that nas to another nas offsite.

Zfs z2 pool . Not a perfect backup, but it covers disk failure (already lost one disk with no data loss), and accidental file deletion. I'm vulnerable to my house burning down, but overall I sleep well enough.

3-2-1

Three copies. The data on your server.

2. Buy a giant external drive and back up to that.

3. Off site. Backblaze is very nice

How to get your data around? Free file sync is nice.

Veeeam community version may help you too

Veeam backup and recovery notnfor retail license covers up to 10 workloads. I then s3 offsite to backblaze

Compressed pg_dump rsync’ed to off-site server.

If you are using kubernetes, you can use longhorn to provision PVCs. It offers easy S3 backup along with snapshots. It has saved me a few times.
