Hello,Got few (currently 3 will increase as days go) database in A2 hosting unmanaged vps server, running Ubuntu server 18 lts
Planning to have an additional backup of all files, including pg database, to another cloud provider like Amazon S3 (any other suggestions?)
Size won't be crossing 5GB per database for the next few years.

Pg_dump or do a wal archive.

Not done so far. Started using A2 for production just a couple of months back.

Re: Re. Backup of postgresql database

Should manually do pg_dump and then copy the resultant one to the destination?

Re: Re. Backup of postgresql database

After that, I'd install "pgbackrest", and use it to write backups to an S3
