Configure storage for backups¶

You can configure storage for backups in the backup.storages subsection of the Custom Resource, using the deploy/cr.yaml configuration file.

The Operator provides several storage types for different storages. To help you choose the right storage type, consider these points:

S3 - Use this storage type for native AWS S3 and for S3-compatible storage services that support Signature Version 4 (SigV4) used in the AWS SDK 2.
minio - Use this storage type for MinIO and other S3-compatible services that don’t support SigV4 or require endpoint configuration that works better with the minio storage type.
gcp - Use this storage type for Google Cloud Storage.
azure - Use this storage type for Microsoft Azure Blob storage.
filesystem - Use this storage type for uploading backups to a remote file server.

For each backup storage, create a Kubernetes Secret object with credentials and reference it in the Custom Resource.
