Select the server on which your database is hosted (if you haven't yet configured any server check our " get your server configured" article first).
Select " Database" (in this article we're creating a MongoDB backup only).
Now it's time to head to the create backup page.įrom this screen you'll be able to configure what data you're backing up (MongoDB in this case), where you want it to be saved (in this case your Backblaze Bucket), and how often you want this to be done.įYI this section will be the same, no matter what storage you pick.Īnd that's the beauty of it, if you want to change storage, just select another one from the list (Backblaze, AWS, or whatever you might prefer) and you'll be good to go. You'll be redirected to the list of storage where you'll find your newly connected storage.
Give your storage a name (usually we like to use the Bucket name) and click on "Save new storage".
Bucket: Bucket name described in (step 1).
Region: Bucket region described in (step 1).
Secret: applicationKey described in (step 2).
Select "Backblaze B2" as storage provider and fill in the "Connect your storage" form with the information from step 1 and 2.
Log into SimpleBackups and head to the connect your storage page.
The only remaining step is connecting this new storage to SimpleBackups. So far we have created a Bucket and have created the required credentials to get access to this it. Connect your Backblaze bucket to SimpleBackups You'll get a confirmation message including your KeyID and applicationKey, which is what we need to connect your storage to SimpleBackups.ģ. Leave the rest of the option empty and create your key.
Allow access to Bucket(s): select your Bucket (step 1).
Name of the Key: we like to use a reference of the Bucket we're creating the credentials for.
Go to the "App Keys" page and click on "Add a new Application Key" button.
Great! Now that we have a Bucket, we need to create the credentials required to access it.
Your "Bucket" Region, in this case "us-west-002".
Your "Bucket" name, in this case "myacme-bucket".
Go to the Bucket page create a new Bucketįill in your Bucket name and create the Bucket Have a Backblaze account (we'll cover how to create your Blackblaze Bucket below) Make sure you have your server connected to your account (the one on which your MongoDB database is hosted) Let's get ready, and get this this done in under 5 minutes (you'll see, it's really easy to get your first MongoDB database backup automated). Everything is easy to setup and getting your first backup stored there is super easy. When you start with Backblaze, and already know about S3, you're not in a foreign territory. Automate MongoDB database backup directly to your Backblaze storage.Īt SimpleBackups, we started looking into Backblaze for their B2 cloud solution and I must say we've been very positively surprised by their solution.
