Is there any way to take any Client Uploaded Images Backup.

Posted on November 6, 2021
  • If we setup DO Spaces for tacking Client Images Backup, but there is no Spaces Backup facility available from DO and if there something happened then data will be lost.
  • So is there any way, Like: We can create a new GitLab Repo for tacking Backup, so any changes is happened in the Spaces, then it will automatically Pull changes in the Gitlab Repo.

Hello @hquery,

At the moment, there is no direct way to back up the Spaces on our platforms. However, you can still achieve this by choosing the best suitable method for your use from the various methods provided below.

  • You can create a space in a different region and copy the files using tools like rclone:

Once the s3cmd setup is done, you can use s3cmd command to download files recursively in spaces.

s3cmd sync s3://bucketnamehere/folder /destination/folder

Best, Bobby
