I use the convention that all my containers are getting a /data/ folder where data can be stored and will get an automatic daily backup.

It is easy to set the right storage behind /data/.

Just a convention, nothing more, smoothly working for the past "many" years.

I assume you're saying this as a container image author, not as someone who is deploying containers. It'd be great if every other container image author standardized on something like this. We just need someone to create the standard and some tools to make the standard a well-paved path.

In this particular case, I am both creating the images and deploying them.
