How do you manage backup for kubernetes persistent volumes? (lemmy.world)

I've been configuring my own selfhosted Kubernetes cluster with various raspberry pis, and for applications that require persistence, I rely on NFS as a provider for Persistent Volumes.

Now I want to deal with backups of my data, mainly the multmedia library I'm building with Jellyfin.

I'm thinking about just doing something outside kubernetes that just copies the data from the directory that NFS provides to another storage.

If you've done something similar, what's your approach? There are solutions that can be done inside kubernetes?

Velero is the backup solution for PVCs and k8s way.

Interesting! I'm using in fact the NFS CSI driver, and it seems that Velero can attach to any CSI interface to make backups. I'm definetely taking a look at it.

A lot of commercial kubernetes backup tools incorporate Velero for portions of their protection methods too!
