We've been using k8s-snapshots[1] Very easy to setup and use. Very simple to add snapshots too. How does this compare? [1] https://github.com/miracle2k/k8s-sn

  That only works on AWS & GCE. A restic based operator will work anywhere.

  * K8up uses Restic, k8s-snapshots Tarsnap * K8up doesn't do snapshots but file-based backups supporting any RWX storage and to some extend RWO (still to be improved) * K8up can do pre-backup tasks like dumping a database to have application consistent backups * K8up has a great amount of monitoring backed in for providing a good overview via Prometheus if the backups really work * K8up can send webhooks about backups available to allow integrations into third party control panels. F.e. Lagoon[1] uses it [1] https://github.com/amazeeio/lagoon https://github.com/amazeeio/lagoon

    "* K8up uses Restic ..." Does that mean I could use the SFTP transport of restic and send my K8up generated backups to any old SFTP server ?

      In theory yes, we need to implement support for more remotes. Please open a GitHub issue so we can take care.
