In this repository I will endeavor to maintain up to date documentation regarding how to backup your (user) data from various commonly used cloud services providers.
Please note: this repository is being automatically synced from Github to Gitbook. If you are accessing this from the latter, please use the menu in the left sidebar to navigate and not the table of contents below.
I am still searching for a tool that:
- Automatically exports all SaaS applications and sync them cloud-to-cloud to commonly supported object storage buckets (but especially Backblaze B2)
For my latest master backup strategy — covering both the cloud and the Linux desktop — please visit this repository.
If you have feedback or would like to contribute to the summaries, please be in touch.
