Ask HN: What does your startup do for data backup/disaster recovery?

We use CouchDB for distributed instances, using Digital Ocean droplets with backups there as well…might not be best practice.

We both use laptops, but run headless ubuntu machines with bittorrent sync for backups and staying up to date. It's a terrible system and we should be ashamed, but it works. Soon we'll have a software developer with us (hopefully) and I'm sure the ballgame will change. Maybe github on those 2 headless machines? dunno...
