Quemsi
Quemsi is a hybrid tool for database backup and restore, with a web UI for tagged snapshots, timeline history, and one-click restoration. It supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and MongoDB. Backup and restore flows can include custom steps such as stopping services or running scripts, and backups can go to AWS S3, Azure Blob, or local drives under the user's control. Its agent runs operations inside the user's infrastructure, while the cloud service handles metadata rather than database content. The agent is open source and can be audited, modified, or built from source. Agent-to-cloud communication uses TLS 1.3, agents use certificate-based mutual TLS, and SHA-256 checksums verify backup integrity. Agents are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and can also run as a Java JAR or Docker container. The free Solo plan costs nothing and includes unlimited databases, environments, and flows for one user, with community support.
