LightSail Snapshots Questions

How much free storage is included?
Since snapshots are stored within your LightSail account, we don't count that toward your plan storage limit. In short, you can create as many snapshots as you like.
What gets installed on my LightSail server?
We don't install anything on your server. You use your LightSail account API Key to connect with BackupSheep, and we use LightSail APIs to trigger snapshots.
