Backups

Database (MariaDB)

make backup-db              # write a timestamped dump
make restore-db f=<file>    # restore from a dump

Object storage

Artifacts and attachments live in the rustfs S3 bucket (storage.s3.media_bucket). Back it up with your S3 client of choice against the configured endpoint. With storage.provider: gcs, use the bucket's own versioning or export tooling instead.

The AI model keeps its retrained bundles in the ai-models bucket (the registry points at them); ai-datasets is transient. Also back up Analyzers/AIMailAnalyzer/models/ (git-ignored, no public source). See AI inference.

Elasticsearch, ChromaDB and Redis

Elasticsearch and ChromaDB data are rebuildable (search index: python manage.py reindex_cases; similarity store: refilled as cases are processed). Redis holds no durable data (task queue and cache only). Back up .env and .env.data with your other secrets: they contain the service credentials.
