Setup a scheduled workflow to backup a Database every 12 hours
The goal of this project is to setup a scheduled workflow to backup a Database every 12 hours and upload the backup to Cloudflare R2 which has a free tier for storage.
The pre-requisite for this project is to have a server setup and a database ready to backup. You can use one of the projects did in the other project. Alternatively:
Setup a server on Digital Ocean or any other provider
Run a MongoDB instance on the server
Seed some data to the database
Once you have a server and a database ready, you can proceed to the next step.
You can do this bit either by setting up a cron job on the server or alternatively setup a scheduled workflow in Github Actions that runs every 12 hours and execute the backup from there. Database should be backedup up into a tarball and uploaded to Clouodflare R2.
Hint: You can use the mongodump to dump the database and then use aws cli to upload the file to R2.
Write a script to download the latest backup from R2 and restore the database.
Database backups are essential to ensure that you can restore your data in case of a disaster. This project will give you hands on experience on how to setup a scheduled workflow to backup a database and how to restore it from a backup.
