How do you guys back up your server?

I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?

  • 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!
