 Akeeba Backup is a native 1.5 joomla component formally known as joomlapack is the best option for backing up your joomla website. In a nutshell, Akeeba Backup Core is an open-source backup component for the Joomla! CMS, quite a bit different than its competition. Its mission is simple: create a site backup that can be restored on any Joomla!-capable server.
It creates a full backup of your site in a single archive. The archive contains all the files, a database snapshot and a restoration script (derived from the standard Joomla! installer). The backup and restore process is AJAX powered, designed to avoid server timeouts, even with multi-gigabyte sites! Alternatively, you can make a backup of only your database or your files. If you want a reliable, easy to use, open source backup solution for your Joomla! site, try it out. 
Akeeba Backup comes in two editions. Both are Open Source, distributed under the GNU GPL v3. The Core edition contains all the functionality required to backup, restore and migrate your component, but the subscription-based Professional edition takes this even further. Giving you the ability to schedule your backups using native CRON scripts and allowing you to store your backup archives on cloud storage servers, such as Amazon S3, it really caters for a truly automated, no-worries backup solution for your most precious of data: your site.
