How do you migrate from GitHub Actions to Velero?

Migrating from GitHub Actions to Velero involves a series of steps to ensure your Kubernetes applications are backed up effectively. Velero is a powerful tool for backup and recovery of Kubernetes resources and persistent volumes, and transitioning from GitHub Actions workflows requires careful planning. Below, we cover the migration process and provide an example of a basic Velero backup command.

velero install \ --provider aws \ --bucket your-s3-bucket \ --secret-file ./credentials-velero \ --use-restic \ --backup-location-config region=us-west-2

In this command, we are installing Velero with AWS as the storage provider. The command includes specifying a bucket for your backups, providing a secret file with needed credentials, enabling the use of Restic for persistent volume backups, and configuring your backup location.
