Implement backup for the device #250

Closed vsapronov closed 5 years ago

Could be simple: take the whole disk into archive, encrypt and put to the storage. Obviously it's storage space sensitive.

It also correlates to our ideas of migrating physical device into/from cloud.

I was thinking about something like glusterfs to be able to attach syncloud devices and care less if they die.

I was thinking that SyncThing could be used - It uses a web interface for control. Install on each device you want to back up, and each device to back up to each other, pick your master/parent folders and choose your backup method - it supports simple, staggered, and external versioning techniques.

Toggle device backup at syncloud.it, let user select storage location, then let the user install SyncThing as just another app that has access to the same location.

Good idea, another option is to organise raid array with more than one usb drive.

Syncthing is actually available on master channel: https://github.com/syncloud/platform/issues/315

I am implementing backup/restore feature per app.
