Recommended way to do backups?

[fr3fou]

I want to backup my MeiliSearch data but not sure what approach to take. I was thinking of something using a cron job that uploads the dump to S3. What's the recommended way to do this?

Hi @fr3fou, Sorry for the delay in responding. We don't have a specific recommended way, you can indeed make schedule snapshots or make dumps regularly. You can check the documentation on backup to see. Do not hesitate to tell us if you find a good solution 😊.

I was thinking of setting up a Kubernetes CronJob (https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/cron-jobs/) using some kind of Docker image that creates a dump then uploads it to S3 as I mentioned in the original issue. However I was wondering if there's an official image that does something similar to this or a community one.

There is no such thing, for now, we have this repo for Kubernetes clusters and an official docker image. I don't know anything about something like that in the community but it would be a great addition!

As the question has been answered, I'm closing this repo.
