Since I got my docker environment setup and functional, I'm now thinking about backups. I'd like do a cloud backup of my docker volumes at the very least, if not the images and/or the config files. Any advice on cloud providers?

Volume backups would be about 20-30 GB in total.

These are two I found via a quick search: One drive is $99.99 a year for 1 TB. Jottacloud is $69.99 a year for 1 TB

Dropbox is out as it's too expensive. I like the price of Jottacloud but I've never used it before.

How do you handle backups? Would cloud be a waste?

mirrored RAID, and a Corsair Survivor.

Do you do any off-site backup? I have plenty of drive enclosures I could use to back up onsite but that just feels like an extra step if I then replicate it off-site.

I have as much faith in cloud backups as I do the government. The data I have backed up does not leave It's air-gaped system, so an offsite backup is not viable.

It sounds like you have a known amount you need to store. mega.nz might be what you're looking for. I use it to store some stuff I need to be able to access from anywhere.
