+# Backups (restic, duplicity...)
+
+Backups are essential for disaster recovery but they are not trivial to manage.
+Using Garage as your backup target will enable you to scale your storage as needed while ensuring high availability.
+
+## Borg Backup
+
+Borg Backup is very popular among the backup tools but it is not yet compatible with the S3 API.
+We recommend using any other tool listed in this guide because they are all compatible with the S3 API.
+If you still want to use Borg, you can use it with `rclone mount`.
