What is the proper, kubernetes native way of working with multiple clusters for DR, HA?
2 projects | /r/kubernetes | 7 Jul 2023

Openshift last I looked used Velero under the covers for the functionality, which works fine in standard kubernetes. Most if not all that Openshift does is Open source.

Tool for dumping manifests from your Kubernetes clusters
3 projects | /r/kubernetes | 1 Jun 2023

While not discounting OP or the work in this repo (seems like a fun k8s/go project), folks might check out Velero for this purpose if they're looking to rely on this kind of export in prod: https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/velero
Kubernetes Backup & Restore - Recommended options?

Hyper-v backup for Kubernetes cluster
1 project | /r/HyperV | 24 May 2023

Hyper-V itself does not directly support backing up container-based platforms like Kubernetes clusters. To back up a Kubernetes cluster, you would typically use tools that interact with the Kubernetes API to capture the necessary data and metadata for backup purposes. Some of those tools are Velero https://velero.io/ (formerly Heptio Ark), Kasten K10, and Stash.
Kubernetes postgres backups

For Kubernetes-land, https://velero.io/ is awesome - but I haven't used it for online-database backups yet. If you're exploring, I'd checkout Velero - if you just need something to work reliably, I'd checkout Percona.
EKS Etcd Backup
1 project | /r/kubernetes | 2 May 2023

If you're looking for a backup solution for managed kubernetes, check out Velero. It is great for non-managed kube as well (but you've got other options like etcd backups)
