Free open-source database backups with restore verification

About Databasus

Databasus is a free, open-source backup tool for PostgreSQL, MySQL and MongoDB. It schedules automated backups to local storage or cloud destinations and notifies on success or failure through Slack, Discord, Telegram and email. A central focus is point-in-time recovery with restore verification, so backups are proven usable rather than just written.

The tool self-hosts via Docker and is community-maintained under an open-source license. It targets teams and indie developers who want monitored, verified database backups without paying for an enterprise backup product or trusting an untested cron job.
