About Kopia
With a secure, scalable architecture, Kopia can back up everything from small laptops to large servers today. Kopia is a fast and secure open-source backup/restore tool that manages filesystem snapshots in a remote storage. Kopia uploads directories and files to remote storage called Repository and maintains a set of historical point-in-time snapshot records based on defined policies. Each snapshot is always incremental, no data included in previous snapshots is ever re-uploaded to the repository based on file content. After moving or renaming even large files, Kopia can recognize that they have the same content and won’t need to upload them again. Multiple users or computers can share same repository: if users share the same files, they are also uploaded only once. To restore data, Kopia can mount the contents of a Repository as a local disk, and you can use normal file copy tools to perform full or selective restore.

Timeshift
Timeshift for Linux is an application that provides functionality similar to the System Restore feature in Windows and the Time Machine tool in Mac OS. Timeshift protects your system by taking incremental snapshots of the file system at regular intervals. These snapshots can be restored at a later date to undo all changes to the system. In RSYNC mode, snapshots are taken using rsync and hard links. Common files are shared between snapshots which save disk space. Each snapshot is a full system backup that can be browsed with a file manager. Timeshift is similar to applications like rsnapshot, BackInTime and TimeVault but with different goals. It is designed to protect only system files and settings. User files such as documents, pictures and music are excluded. This ensures that your files remain unchanged when you restore your system to an earlier date.

Yandex Cloud Backup
Yandex Cloud Backup allows you to save application data and ensure its integrity by using the Cloud Backup agent in the guest OS. Restore individual files from backups to the appropriate directory of the current version of the VM. Configure virtual machine backup policies for the entire cloud using the console. Apply these policies when configuring VMs. All backup operations are performed in the cloud; you only need to establish and apply policies to the required virtual machines. Unlike a disk snapshot, the service creates a copy of all virtual machine disks, including network SSDs and HDDs, non-replicated disks, and dedicated host local disks. When restoring the previous state of the current virtual machine is impossible, you can restore its backup to a new virtual machine.
