Overview
S3 Backups provides easy scripts that system administrators can use to backup data from programs likes PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, etc.
Installation
To install s3-backups:
$ sudo pip install s3-backups
Usage
Setting Up S3 Backups to Run Automatically Using Cron
PostgreSQL
Add the following to the file /etc/cron.d/postgres_to_s3 and then change the command arguments so the command is using your correct AWS credentials, backup bucket and the correct base S3 Key/base folder.
0 */1 * * * postgres /usr/local/bin/postgres_to_s3.py --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' --S3_KEY_NAME='postgres/my-awesome-server' --backup --archive
Redis
Add the following to the file /etc/cron.d/redis_to_s3 and then change the command arguments so the command is using your correct AWS credentials, backup bucket and the correct base S3 Key/base folder.
0 */1 * * * root redis_to_s3.py --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' --S3_KEY_NAME='redis/my-awesome-server' --backup --archive
MySQL
Add the following to the file /etc/cron.d/mysql_to_s3 and then change the command arguments so the command is using your correct AWS credentials, backup bucket and the correct base S3 Key/base folder.
0 */1 * * * root mysql_to_s3.py --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' --S3_KEY_NAME='redis/my-awesome-server' --backup --archive
Manually Running Backups and Archiving
When running the archive command, S3 Backups moves backups into a year/month sub folder (technically a S3 key) for archives it’s scheduled to keep and removes all other archives. S3 Backups, will use the default schedule unless you you tell it to use a different schedule with the --schedule_module argument.
The default archive schedule will …
keep all archives for 7 days
keep midnight backups for every other day for 30 days
keep the first day of the month forever
remove all other files that aren’t scheduled to be kept
To backup PostgreSQL, run the following:
$ postgres_to_s3.py \ --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' \ --S3_KEY_NAME='postgres/my-awesome-server' \ --backup
To archive PostgreSQL backups, run the following:
$ postgres_to_s3.py \ --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' \ --S3_KEY_NAME='postgres/my-awesome-server' \ --archive
To backup Redis, run the following:
$ redis_to_s3.py \ --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' \ --S3_KEY_NAME='redis/my-awesome-server' --backup
To archive Redis, run the following:
$ redis_to_s3.py \ --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' \ --S3_KEY_NAME='redis/my-awesome-server' --archive
To backup MySQL, run the following:
$ mysql_to_s3.py \ --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' \ --S3_KEY_NAME='redis/my-awesome-server' --backup
To archive MySQL, run the following:
$ mysql_to_s3.py \ --AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' \ --S3_BUCKET_NAME='my-backup-bucket' \ --S3_KEY_NAME='redis/my-awesome-server' --archive
