SnapShooter is a cloud backup and recovery solution. Use SnapShooter to back up servers, volumes, databases, and applications from DigitalOcean and other cloud providers.
SnapShooter will remove support for Exoscale on 1 May 2024, due to Exoscale API deprecations.
Customers who will no longer require snapshot services after this change should contact support for a prorated refund.
SnapShooter Server File backup jobs now have an Include Git Repos? option to fully back up Git repos and their historical metadata. Without this option enabled, the files in a Git repo are backed up but the .git
metadata directory is ignored.
See How to Back Up Files with SnapShooter for more information on backing up files with SnapShooter.
SnapShooter accounts created after 19 October 2023 cannot use Google Drive or Dropbox as a SnapShooter storage provider. Please use SnapShooter Simple Storage, Spaces Object Storage, or other storage providers instead.
DigitalOcean has acquired SnapShooter, a backup and recovery solutions provider. Learn more in our blog post.
