I would suggest if you do host your database yourself consider taking the data seriously. Few easy solutions are using a multi zonal disk [1] with scheduled automatic snapshots [2].

Scheduled automatic snapshots are not the kind of consistent snapshots you need for a filesystem based backup.

		Snapshots might break ACID for last few transactions but it will flush all in-memory writes before taking the freeze. Consider its 1 click solution, its good enough than losing everything?
