Daily PostGres backups are causing storage problems

[lbogaardt]

Currently, the entire PostGres database exported as a .sql file every day. The files are named using the day of the month numbering, meaning they are overwritten once every 30/31 days. When the PostGres database gets filled with data from many participants, this backup system may cause the storage limit of the server to be reached.

Either increase the storage limit, compress the backup file or change the backup method.

I changed the backup method to overwrite the same file every day. This is only a temporary solution. The storage limit of our server should be increased.
