Databasus
Web-based scheduled backup management for databases
Databasus is an open-source backup management service for PostgreSQL (primary focus), MySQL/MariaDB, and MongoDB. It provides a web UI to schedule backups, store encrypted archives to various destinations, and notify teams about job results.
Key Features
- Scheduled backups with hourly/daily/weekly/monthly intervals and cron support
- Supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and MongoDB across multiple major versions
- Multiple storage destinations including local disk and S3-compatible object storage
- AES-256-GCM encryption for backup archives and protection of sensitive configuration data
- Team-oriented workspaces with role-based access control and audit logs
- Optional database health checks with status history and outage notifications
- Notification integrations (for example email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, and webhooks)
Use Cases
- Centralized backup management for multiple production databases across projects
- Team-run backup operations with access controls, auditing, and shared notifications
- Storing encrypted database backups in third-party or shared object storage
Limitations and Considerations
- Focuses on scheduled full backups; it is not designed for incremental/PITR workflows such as WAL archiving
Databasus fits teams and individuals who want a simple, UI-driven way to manage database backups reliably. It combines scheduling, encryption, storage backends, and notifications in a single service suitable for DevOps operations.
