Backup Site Data from a Bitnami WordPress instance

Bitnami support got back to my support ticket with the following response:

Yes, the data that requires persistence can be found in the “/bitnami” folder. Specifically, the “/opt/bitnami/wordpress/wp-config.php” file and the “/opt/bitnami/wordpress/wp-content” directory are symbolically linked to the “/bitnami/wordpress” folder. Similarly, the MariaDB data is symbolically linked to “/bitnami/mariadb”. However, it’s important to note that this solution is not tested for VMs and may lead to issues, (especially with major version changes) for example when a newer version of WordPress expects a database table to be present, which doesn’t exist in the old version, etc.
