In their own words
DBDock
DBDock is a database toolkit for backups, restores, copies and cross-database migrations. Its free, MIT-licensed CLI supports backups and restores for PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, SQL Server and Redis. It also supports migration between MongoDB and PostgreSQL in either direction, with schema mapping, dry runs and incremental sync. Backup storage can be local disk, AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, Cloudinary or managed DBDock Storage. The CLI supports cron-based automation and email or Slack notifications. DBDock Cloud adds a managed dashboard with scheduled jobs, managed storage, teams and alerts. Listed safeguards include AES-256-GCM encryption with PBKDF2 key derivation, credential masking and `.pgpass` support. Cloud Sync sends non-secret metadata while database passwords, storage keys, encryption secrets and webhook URLs stay on the user's machine. A TypeScript SDK provides programmatic access from Node.js applications. The CLI requires Node.js 18 or newer, and PostgreSQL backups also require PostgreSQL client tools. DBDock is listed for Linux, macOS, Windows, web, API and self-hosted use.
