Sorry for adding to the massive pile of backup-related question, but I could not figure out how to manage backups from existing answers…
I want to backup my VPS setup (think container-defining files, its volumes, and etc configs), but am unsure where to put it. Does keeping these in the VPS itself make sense? If so, how do I create and manage the backup?
Also, I would need a remote copy - what is the good location for this? I wish I could copy to my laptop, but obviously I cannot do that automatically. Should I pay money for a backup? I want to avoid paying lots of money just for backups. Thanks in advance!
Make sure to not check in secrets in plaintext. git crypt is one way to encrypt secrets before checking them in.
I suggest SOPS
Terraform sensitive variables and AWS secrets manager? ^^
I don’t like big corporations so I wouldn’t do that, but sure
