Duplicity/Duply Backup to S3 without API Keys?


Goal: Automated full and incremental backups of an AWS EFS filesystem to an S3 bucket.

I have been looking at Duplicity/Duply to accomplish this, and it looks like it could work.I do have one concern, you would have to store API keys in the clear on an AMI for this to work. Is there any way to accomplish this using a role?


Solution

  • I do backups exactly as you want to and it can be done since duplicity has support for instance profile. Make sure to give appropriate access to your role and attach it to your instance.
