Best decision of last year for my homelab: run everything in Proxmox VMs/containers and back up to a separate Proxmox Backup Server instance.

Fully automated, incremental, verified backups, and restoring is one click of a button.



Yes, I'm considering that if I can't find a solution that is plug-and-play for containers Independent of the OS and file system. Although I don't mind something abstracting on top of ZFS. ZFS Mental overhead through the snapshot paradigm can lead to its own complexities. A traditional backup and restorer front end would be great.

I find it strange that, especially with a docker which already knows your volumes, app data, and config, can't automatically backup and restore databases, and configs. Jeez, they could have built it right into docker.
