    Project mention: Borg CVE fix requires migration | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-10-10
  • s3cmd

    Official s3cmd repo -- Command line tool for managing Amazon S3 and CloudFront services

  • gmvault

    gmail backup software

    Project mention: MailPlus locking up Server | /r/synology | 2023-05-30

    Do you have other apps installed? Go into the package center and stop stuff. Your issue isn't corruption it's the old and not very powerful hardware (and possibly your drives) not being enough for the workload. If you want to try a different app there is a docker solution https://github.com/gaubert/gmvault

  • wal-e

    Continuous Archiving for Postgres

    Project mention: Run PostgreSQL. The Kubernetes Way | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-22

    See the GitHub: https://github.com/wal-e/wal-e

    Unmaintained would’ve made more sense to say, but the maintainer choose the words “obsolete” so I took those. :)

    Seems to be obsolete due to a lack of interest and contributions.

  • gphotos-sync

    Google Photos and Albums backup with Google Photos Library API

    Project mention: A way to auto send from google photo to photoprism? | /r/photoprism | 2023-07-04

    What I did was a very painful process of using Google Takeout and gphotos-sync ( https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync ), manually merging what I knew was missing, and using file counts by month/year to track other missing objects. gphotos-sync is limited by the same API issues as rclone, which is another perfectly fine utility to use, besides the API limitations. On a side note, I use rclone to backup everything to "storj" every night ( delta sync ).

  • Barman

    Barman - Backup and Recovery Manager for PostgreSQL

  • Back In Time

    Back In Time - An an easy-to-use backup tool for Linux

    Project mention: Free software project "Back In Time" requests for translation | /r/China | 2023-10-13

  • borgmatic

    Simple, configuration-driven backup software for servers and workstations

    Project mention: Kopia: Open-Source, Fast and Secure Open-Source Backup Software | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-15

    Not really dumb. I do use them too but with Borgbackup on the top (since they support it natively).

    I found Borgmatic ( https://torsion.org/borgmatic/ ) to be the best way to run my backups. It takes care of everything from pruning to verifying the checksum etc... and it integrates with some monitoring (like cronitor).

    So Borgmatic + rsync.net is the best combo

  • pghoard

    PostgreSQL® backup and restore service

  • shallow-backup

    Git-integrated backup tool for macOS and Linux devs.

  • Rdiff-backup

    Reverse differential backup tool, over a network or locally.

    Project mention: Trying to install rdiff-backup on an Oracle Cloud Red Hat VM. | /r/redhat | 2023-05-03

    and that should install the latest version, rdiff-backup-2.2.4-2.el8.x86_64.rpm. This is all described in the rdiff-backup README file.

  • grafana-backup-tool

    A Python-based application to backup Grafana settings by using the Grafana API

    Project mention: Home Energy Monitoring Dashboard | /r/grafana | 2023-04-17

    The backup functionality sure is handy and convenient. I was considering checking out this project to take backups of my grafana instance but I might follow your suggestion if that doesn’t go to plan. God knows how many times the HA backups (or any backup in general ) has saved me headache
