In their own words
Databasus
Databasus is free, open-source, self-hosted database backup software for Linux and web deployment, with PostgreSQL as its primary focus. It also supports MySQL, MariaDB, and MongoDB. PostgreSQL workflows include logical backups, physical full and incremental backups, and WAL streaming for point-in-time recovery; physical, incremental, and WAL options require PostgreSQL 17 or newer. Schedules can run hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or through cron. Destinations include local storage, S3-compatible storage, Cloudflare R2, Google Drive, Azure Blob Storage, NAS, FTP, SFTP, and rclone. The service can periodically restore a recent backup in a temporary database container and report the result. It includes access management, teams, projects, and audit logs. Databasus says credentials and backup files use AES-256-GCM encryption, while database access is read-only with SELECT permissions. Installation supports a Linux script, Docker, Docker Compose, and Helm for Kubernetes. The Free, open-source software plan costs nothing under Apache 2.0 and includes all described features.
