A almost perfect rsync over SSH backup script
My go-to backup solution, that can also manage rsync over ssh (among plenty other things), is synbak[0]. Short wrapper script to automatically mount the backup medium and it's really simple to (automatically) run a backup job. I use encrypted (LUKS) USB drives for that at home. Highly recommend it.
For encrypted backups to e.g. a NAS, Duplicity[1] is my go-to choice (full backup every month or so, with incremental backup every day inbetween).

A almost perfect rsync over SSH backup script
> # avoidng collisions with other rsync processes
Use https://github.com/instacart/ohmycron
> MONTHROTATE=monthrotate # use DD instead of YYMMDD
Use https://rotate-backups.readthedocs.io/en/latest/readme.html
> $RSYNC -avR "$SOURCE" "${RSYNCCONF[@]}"
Just create a one-line script with the hardcoded rsync command you want to use and replace the directory to sync as a command-line argument, e.g.
#!/bin/sh
