Hexos needs a first party application backup and restore system

[NAS]

The whole purpose of a NAS to keep data secure and resilient to data loss. Currently there is no way to backup and restore applications. Application Backups/Restore should be plug-and-play.

Thoughts:

• First party implementation
• Simple
• Application independent
• Backup and restore applications
  • Granular restore/backup individual applications
  • Restore applications even on a new Hexos system from backup
• End-user should be able to browse application data through a file explore

Breakaway from ZFS mindset like snapshots (abstracted away behind an advanced menu) and give users a simple traditional backup and restore option.

+1 Bump (Agreed, may be a big ask but something with something like Realtime CDP (Continuous Data Protection) for servers, allowing for versioning, and consistent backups without random times of day using up all of the bandwidth on your network.)
