Duplicati: Free backup software to store encrypted backups online

“How strange. I have been backing up my own computers (4) and those of my family (another 3) using Duplicati for over three years now, and aside from the very rare full-body derp that required a complete dump of the backup profile (once) and a rebuild of the remote backup…”

Duplicati: Free backup software to store encrypted backups online

“the thing that made me wanting to post is this bullshit: Download Duplicati 2.0 (beta) or Look at 1.3.4 (not supported) i work at a big tech and see this all the time, if your "new shinny promotion ready" version is not ready, why the hell would you drop support for the old…”

Why I Built Litestream

“I've wanted to move a small, Postgres-backed web app (written in Go) to SQLite, but one of the hurdles is that we deploy to Heroku (which famously has an ephemeral filesystem). Since the web app runs on a single, always-on dyno, seems like it may work to use Litestream to (1)…”

Litestream: Revamped

“Very cool! This is so clever and makes deploying it so simple. I just wasn't able to use it yet because we'd have (many) thousands of SQLite DBs to backup. I quickly hacked something together using fanotify + SQLite's Backup API to have some copies at least, but I'm going to try…”

Kopia: Fast and secure open-source backup software

“Not the previous poster, and I don't use Kopia, but after reading Kopia features and docs, they seem to be in par. I use Duplicati quite extensively for personal backups, and didn't really have any issues. Duplicati has a web interface, so with a proper authentication in place,…”

Kopia: Fast and secure open-source backup software

“I used to use Restic many years ago, when it wasn't clear what the future direction of Borg (a.k.a Attic) would be since development had mostly stalled. At the time it was missing some features and Borg managed to fix its issues quickly enough that I ended up using that. These…”

BorgBackup 2.0 supports Rclone – over 70 cloud providers in addition to SSH

“I'll use Restic or BorgBackup for servers, but ended up going with Kopia for machines that are not always on, like laptops. It has the advantage that it will take something of an opportunistic approach where it will start backing up if it hasn't done so in a while, and seems to…”

BorgBackup 2.0 supports Rclone – over 70 cloud providers in addition to SSH

“Vorta (GUI for BorgBackup) will also opportunistically backup if it's overdue for a backup.”

Show HN: Databasus – open-source backup tool for PostgreSQL, MySQL and MongoDB

“Databasus and WAL-G have completely different architectures. WAL-G is installed on the server with DB. Databasus connects to the database remotely. WAL-G is about PITR backups, Databasus is about logical ones. From one side, Databasus usually is slower when database is large.…”

Show HN: Databasus – open-source backup tool for PostgreSQL, MySQL and MongoDB

“Nice to see the project evolving beyond PostgreSQL. How does Databasus compare architecturally to tools like pgBackRest or WAL-G for Postgres, or to mysqldump-based solutions for MySQL? In particular, how do these differences affect performance and reliability for backups and…”

Introducing WAL-G: Faster Disaster Recovery for Postgres

“WAL-G looks like it should be able to talk to Minio (minio.io, S3 compatible thing, also written in go) as a backend instead of S3 itself. Minio has an interesting feature where it can be a "gateway" to other cloud storage. Google Cloud Storage is one of their specific examples:…”

Introducing WAL-G: Faster Disaster Recovery for Postgres

“According to PostgreSQL documentation, "archived files that are archived early due to a forced switch are still the same length as completely full files". I'm afraid to use a lot of storage for WAL segments that are mostly empty: 16 MB per segment x 60 minutes x 24 hours x 7…”

go runtime panics and/or zrepl process hangs on FreeBSD 12

“I am not sure if this is a zfs/FreeBSD or zrepl issue. But I upgraded the memory and base OS to RELENG12 (r363078 - july 10) and after some period, the daemon which is primarily a sink for incoming streams hangs. Looking at ps, its in a uwait state. I made sure I have the latest…”
