Open-source Go projects categorized as Backup

Top 23 Go Backup Projects

  • restic

    Fast, secure, efficient backup program

    Project mention: Satisfactory | /r/satisfactory | 2023-12-08

    git isn't really great for storing binary files (I assume the saves are binary and not plain text) without additions like git LFS. I'd recommend a backup manager like restic (https://restic.net/).

  • velero

    Backup and migrate Kubernetes applications and their persistent volumes

    Project mention: What is the proper, kubernetes native way of working with multiple clusters for DR, HA? | /r/kubernetes | 2023-07-07

    Openshift last I looked used Velero under the covers for the functionality, which works fine in standard kubernetes. Most if not all that Openshift does is Open source.

  • kopia

    Cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS & Linux with fast, incremental backups, client-side end-to-end encryption, compression and data deduplication. CLI and GUI included.

    Project mention: Very strange behavior/bug - devices stuck together | /r/bcachefs | 2023-12-07

    Btw, kopia is one fine backup tool. Apparently borgbackup is good too.

  • timeliner

    Project mention: I Ditched Google Photos | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-31

    Heya! I'm the author of PhotoStructure, and my Google Photos account (before I started working on PhotoStructure) is about that size, too.

    I wrote up some tips here: https://photostructure.com/faq/takeout/

    This is what I did:

    1. First try to fetch all your Google Photos via Takeout in one archive. If it fails (like it did for me), try different-sized .tgz archives. I had to use the 10 Gb option (using 50gb caused an internal-to-google error).

    If that fails to work, the last resort is to manually create by-year albums, shove all photos from that year into that album, and do a takeout of just that album. Repeat as necessary for every year.

    2. Install an app on your phone to *directly* upload the original photos and videos from your phone to your NAS/home server. I have several recommended apps here: https://photostructure.com/faq/how-do-i-safely-store-files/#...

    At this point, you can still use Google Photos (for viewing and as a last-ditch backup), but your originals are safe (without all the Google Photo downsampling and metadata shenanigans), and you're free to use whatever self-hosted software you want (like PhotoStructure, but there are a ton of alternatives, as well).

    FWIW, I also tried this software: https://github.com/mholt/timeliner -- it does what it can, but the files you get via the API has a bunch of metadata stripped from it. I even had captured-at times get mangled with older photos.

  • wal-g

    Archival and Restoration for databases in the Cloud

  • docker-volume-backup

    Backup Docker volumes locally or to any S3, WebDAV, Azure Blob Storage, Dropbox or SSH compatible storage

    Project mention: I have a question about | /r/paulsdevblog | 2023-11-29

    I am interested in coming up with a backup plan before I get too invested in this setup. I found the docker-volume-backup project that looks like it might be a possible solution. However I'm not sure how to implement it using docker swarm since I am new to all of this. I would be interested in learning what backup solution you use for your docker swarm servers.

  • gobackup

  • clickhouse-backup

  • autorestic

    Config driven, easy backup cli for restic.

    Project mention: Advice request on the best approach to backup with restic | /r/selfhosted | 2023-05-19

    I have looked up and found restic to be a good choice for the many advantages it provides (reduplication, incremental copies, encryption, free, ...). I looked also at the many projects built on it to make it easier to configure (resticker, autorestic). I already made a simple test locally for my MainPC (with docker swarm) and it seems to be fine.

    Project mention: Zrepl – ZFS replication | /r/patient_hackernews | 2023-08-25

  • git-s3-push

    Deploy your git repo to an S3 bucket

    Project mention: How valuable is home lab automation when applying for Devops? | /r/devops | 2023-05-16

    Make a github private repo that pushes to S3. Just spending 5 minutes, I'd have one thing in the repo, your pdf resume which you commit as a pdf, then use a github action like git-s3-push (note: I haven't done due diligence on this, so use it at your own risk).
