Its easy to do incremental and encrypted backups to a ftp/ssh/scp
backup space.<br>
<br>
Use PVE to make a backup an uncompressed backup,<br>
Create an encrypted gz/lzma backup, delete the uncompressed backup<br>
incremental backup that file to ftp/ssh/scp.<div><div class="h5"><br>

<div dir="ltr">Thanks for the feedback everyone. From the feedback
I gather that incremental backup is no possible with VMs and
Containers and hence the cost to backup daily would be really
high for off-site. Is that correct?

<div>I would have been amazing if there was a backup feature to
some major backup providers like Google with encryption.</div>

Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I am looking for a quick and reliable off-site backup
service provider and<br>
solution that can backup my Proxmox data based on
below conditions:<br>
<br>
- Be mindful of bandwidth usage and backup only the
changed files / data and<br>
not all data every-time<br>
</blockquote>
I believe that the backup format (vzdump) is not
friendly to incremental backups<br>

That might be the fault of gzip. gzip on Ubuntu at least has
the --rsyncable option, which helps alot.<span><font color="#888888"><br>
