About Time Machine
Use Time Machine, the built-in backup feature of your Mac, to automatically back up your personal data, including apps, music, photos, email, and documents. Having a backup allows you to recover files that you later delete or can't access. Time Machine automatically makes hourly backups for the past 24 hours, daily backups for the past month, and weekly backups for all previous months. The oldest backups are deleted when your backup disk is full. The first backup might take a long time, but you can continue using your Mac while a backup is underway. Time Machine backs up only the files that changed since the previous backup, so future backups will be faster.

UrBackup
UrBackup is an easy to set up Open Source client/server backup system, that through a combination of image and file backups accomplishes both data safety and a fast restoration time. File and image backups are made while the system is running without interrupting current processes. UrBackup also continuously watches folders you want to be backed up in order to quickly find differences from previous backups. Because of that, incremental file backups are really fast. Your files can be restored through the web interface, via the client or Windows Explorer while the backups of drive volumes can be restored with a bootable CD or USB-Stick (bare-metal restore). Currently, there are over 21,000 running UrBackup server instances (with auto-update enabled) with some instances having hundreds of active clients. A web interface makes setting up your own backup server really easy. The custom client makes fast file and image backups possible.

Yandex Cloud Backup
Yandex Cloud Backup allows you to save application data and ensure its integrity by using the Cloud Backup agent in the guest OS. Restore individual files from backups to the appropriate directory of the current version of the VM. Configure virtual machine backup policies for the entire cloud using the console. Apply these policies when configuring VMs. All backup operations are performed in the cloud; you only need to establish and apply policies to the required virtual machines. Unlike a disk snapshot, the service creates a copy of all virtual machine disks, including network SSDs and HDDs, non-replicated disks, and dedicated host local disks. When restoring the previous state of the current virtual machine is impossible, you can restore its backup to a new virtual machine.
