I just started getting into self hosting using docker compose and I wonder about possible backup solutions.
I only have to safe my docker config so far, but I want host files as well.
What software and hardware are you using for backup?
Local backup to my Synology NAS every night which is then replicated to another NAS at my folks house through a secure VPN tunnel. Pretty simple and easy to deploy.

Sounds good. What do you use for replication?
Just simple old rsync. The nas at the far-end is an old QNAP I had lying around.
Most likely Hyper Backup & Hyper Vault, two applications built into Synology’s DSM software that runs on their NAS devices.
