## What it is
Replibyte is a stateless Rust CLI tool that dumps production databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB), masks sensitive data with fake data, and restores them into development environments. It supports compression, AES-256 encryption, database subsetting, and S3-compatible storage.

## Use cases
- seed a dev database with realistic production data
- mask sensitive data before sharing database dumps
- create encrypted database backups in S3
- scale down a large production database for local testing
- spin up a local postgres container with production-like data
- anonymize PII in database copies

## When to choose
- you need production-like test data without exposing PII
- you work with PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB dumps
- you want a stateless single-binary tool with no server to run
- your database is large and you need subsetting or on-the-fly compression/encryption

## When to avoid
- you need continuous replication rather than dump/restore snapshots
- you use databases other than PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB
- you need auto-detection of sensitive fields (still on the roadmap)
- you require a GUI or long-running service
