For those using VPS services, how do you go about keeping your data backed up? - eviltoast

I have been using a VPS for a while to host some personal projects and services that I have been using. Lately I have start to think to move all my git projects into it aswell. But at the moment, I’m not really sure how to go about off site backups of the data. How do you usually go about running backups on your servers?

    Not using a VPS, but I use ‘restic’ to backup my servers over SFTP to my NAS.

    Works really well, I do daily incremental backups and set it to keep 1 backup a day for the last week, 1 backup a week for the last 4 weeks and 1 backup per month for the last 6 months.

      Having the backups “in-house” is also something to explore, since this could then become the backup for other services aswell
