ionCube for PHP acceleration - WP-CLI for command-line operations ## Best Practices ### Backup Strategy 1. **Regular Schedules**: Set up automated daily/weekly backups 2. **Before Updates**: Always backup before major updates 3. **Multiple Locations**: Use both local and S3 storage 4. **Retention Policies**: Keep 30 days of backups minimum 5. **Test Restores**: Regularly test backup restoration ### Security Practices 1. **S3 Permissions**: Use dedicated IAM user with minimal permissions 2. **Backup Encryption**: Enable S3 server-side encryption 3. **Access Control**: Limit backup access to administrators 4. **Log Monitoring**: Monitor backup logs for suspicious activity ### Performance Optimization 1. **Chunk Size**: Adjust based on server resources (5MB default) 2. **Exclusion Patterns**: Exclude unnecessary files (cache, logs) 3. **Compression**: Use ZIP for best compatibility and speed 4. **Scheduling**: Run backups during low-traffic hours ## Troubleshooting ### Common Issues #### Memory Exhaustion - Reduce chunk size in settings - Exclude large directories (uploads/cache) - Increase PHP memory limit - Use streaming operations #### Timeout Issues - Set unlimited execution time - Use chunked processing - Check server timeout settings - Monitor progress tracking #### S3 Connection Issues - Verify credentials and permissions - Check bucket region settings - Test with S3 endpoint override - Monitor network connectivity #### Validation Failures - Check file permissions - Verify backup integrity - Review compression settings - Check available disk space ### Debug Mode Enable WordPress debug mode for detailed logging: ```php define('WP_DEBUG', true); define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true); ``` ## Changelog ### Version 1.0.0 -
