+## Backup
+
+Headscale applies database migrations during upgrades and we highly recommend to create a backup of your database before
+upgrading. A full backup of Headscale depends on your individual setup, but below are some typical setup scenarios.
+
+=== "Standard installation"
+
+    A installation that follows our [official releases](install/official.md) setup guide uses the following paths:
+
+    - [Configuration file](../ref/configuration.md): `/etc/headscale/config.yaml`
+    - Data directory: `/var/lib/headscale`
+    - SQLite as database: `/var/lib/headscale/db.sqlite`
+
+    ```console
+    TIMESTAMP=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)
+    cp -aR /etc/headscale /etc/headscale.backup-$TIMESTAMP
+    cp -aR /var/lib/headscale /var/lib/headscale.backup-$TIMESTAMP
+    ```
+
+=== "Container"
+
+    A installation that follows our [container](install/container.md) setup guide uses a single source volume directory
+    that contains the configuration file, data directory and the SQLite database.
+
+    ```console
+    cp -aR /path/to/headscale /path/to/headscale.backup-$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)
+    ```
+
+=== "PostgreSQL"
+
+    Please follow PostgreSQL's [Backup and Restore](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/backup.html) documentation
+    to create a backup of your PostgreSQL database.
