For a while I have been looking for the ideal solution for WordPress backups, without having to pay the top price for different plugins and storage. After trying a number of solutions, I am convinced that I have found the ideal solution. Here’s a short explanation, maybe it will help you.
On the WordPress side, I use [UpdraftPlus]). Not really very surprising or innovative, but a very stable plugin with a lot of integration for external storage services. I make daily backups, via the “S3-Compatible (Generic)” option. This option is part of the free version of the plugin.
On the storage side I use [Scaleway Object Storage]), a European Cloud provider with a wide range of services. They offer a Free tier of 75 GB or One-Zone storage + 75 GB or free egress, enough to safely store a large number of backups. Configuring the service within UpdraftPlus works with [API keys]) that you configure in the Scaleway dashboard.
Another tip: make sure your cron jobs are working properly, that will ensure that UpdraftPlus works properly and gets enough resources to function.
I hope it helps someone! 🙂
