Services with a persistent volume have a new **Backups** tab. Add an S3-compatible destination with your bucket and credentials, then set a schedule and how many backups to keep, or start one whenever you like. **Backup and restore history** shows every run.

```bash
ubctl apps backups schedule svc_123 --destination dst_123 --cron "0 3 * * *" --retain 7
ubctl apps backups run svc_123
```
