A multi-engine database backup tool (Docker image and single Go binary) that backs up MySQL/MariaDB, Postgres, MongoDB, Redis, SQLite, MSSQL, InfluxDB, and CouchDB on flexible schedules. It supports filesystem, S3-compatible, and Azure storage targets with compression, GPG encryption, checksums, retention, notifications, and an interactive restore tool.

Use cases

  • schedule nightly backups of mysql and postgres databases
  • back up mongodb and redis containers to s3
  • encrypt database dumps with gpg before storing them
  • run scheduled database backups in docker compose
  • restore a database dump from a backup archive
  • back up multiple databases with per-job retention and compression
  • skip backups during blackout hours
  • get notified when a database backup fails

When to choose

  • you need one tool to back up many different database engines
  • you want scheduled, compressed, encrypted dumps to local disk, S3, or Azure
  • you run containerized infrastructure and want env-var-driven backup jobs
  • you need restore tooling and failure notifications alongside backups

When to avoid

  • you need continuous replication or point-in-time recovery rather than dump-based backups
  • you want full-system or file-level backups, not just databases
  • you need a GUI-managed enterprise backup suite
  • you require cloud-native managed backup services instead of self-hosted tooling
