Design and implement backup strategies for databases, file systems, and cloud resources using tools like tar, rsync, pg_dump, mysqldump, AWS S3, and cloud-native snapshot APIs. Covers full, incremental, and differential backup schemes with retention policies, encryption, and automated verification.

|---|---|---|
No space left on device | Backup destination full | Verify retention cleanup is running; increase storage or reduce retention window |
pg_dump: connection refused | Database not accepting connections or wrong credentials | Check pg_hba.conf, verify connection string, and test with psql first |
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed | Network interruption or SSH timeout | Add --timeout=300 and --partial flags; use persistent SSH tunnel |
S3 upload failed: Access Denied | IAM policy missing s3:PutObject permission | Attach proper IAM policy; verify bucket policy allows writes from the backup source |
Backup file corrupted on restore | Incomplete write or disk error during backup | Add checksum verification (sha256sum) after backup; test restores regularly |
