Puppet Rackspace CloudBackup

Rackspace Cloud Backups is part of Rackspace's public cloud offering and allows you to backup your server file systems (rather than a VM image).

You can configure individual backups through Rackspace's control panel. In order to utilize it, you need to install their backup agent on your VM. puppet-cloudbackup is a puppet module that will automatically install the Rackspace Cloud Backup Agent. See more info here: Rackspace Cloud Backups.
