Hi all, 

I would just like some input as to what is the best way to create backups of objects I am creating using archetypes.  I have looked into relational databases a bit, but I was just curious about whether this is the best route to take?  Any input is appreciated, thanks in advance.

You'd typically back up your entire object database, e.g. by using the repozo.py script. See plone.org/documentation for docs on this.

You can use relational databases with Plone and there are some good reasons to do so, but I don't feel backups is one of them personally. You can use repozo or some other system to backup the zope database. Assuming you're not using external storage, everything is in the Data.fs file, so you just have to make sure that's copied off somewhere safe regularly. The Zope database contains all the archetype-based and other objects your create.
