Backup and restore

Treat MongoDB (application data) and any attached volumes (assets, Git keys, stacks) as critical state.

Recommendations

• Snapshot MongoDB on a schedule appropriate to your RPO.
• Back up Docker stacks/ or equivalent persistent volumes used by the all-in-one image.
• Store encryption/salt secrets separately from database dumps.
• Test restore into a non-production environment before relying on backups.

Exact tooling depends on your host (managed Mongo, volume snapshots, Velero, etc.). Align restore drills with your upgrade process.
