Description

Motivation/Problems

The current structure doesn't provide the backup service. Therefore, when we faces the database broken or something unpredictable, the maintainer couldn't restore it back easily.

Proposed resolution

We could use some useful tools like below which provides backup for Postgres and easily backup to S3.

Research direction

No repository files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the repository's Docker service and configuration structure, then compare the proposed docker-backup-database tool with the existing Postgres setup and backup expectations. Done should mean a default backup service is configured and its restore path is documented and verifiable.
