Data Backups, need help finding a good one.
What are you using for your SaaS or Data Retention backups?
Are you backing up every minute, hour, daily?
I'm looking for a good solution for my data with a number of users that may change within minutes that's not too costly to maintain.

I am using https://simplebackups.io/ to automate backups and backup monitoring and storing the data on BackBlaze B2 Cloud. It's working pretty well so far, some stuff I backup daily, other non-essential analytics data just weekly.
That looks interesting. I'll have to read more on them to see if it makes sense. Thanks for this.
No worries. I personally find it a bit expensive once you have more databases/servers, but it's nice that their server handles scheduling and notifies you if a backup fails. Maybe there is a way/script to do this yourself, but I prefer to pay for their service instead of spending the time looking for a solution myself (eg. create a cronjob with a mysqldump to S3 and send an email if it fails).
At our company (hotglue) we backup data daily (every night). Our user data is mostly hosted in AWS S3, and we keep data backups in Azure Blob Storage. In terms of cost, since S3 and Blob Storage are both relatively cheap this was a good option for us. We also wanted to make sure we didn't solely rely on AWS (in case of outages) for our data backups, so Azure seemed like a logical choice.
What are the options you're currently considering?
