What's next

Active roadmap

No promised dates - just an honest read on what's actively being built, what's decided, and what's still just an idea.

PlannedBackup Engine
DBackup Agent

A small container on the target host that DBackup talks to instead of opening an SSH session, for hosts where SSH access is not an option. Dumps still stream back to DBackup for compression and encryption, so the encryption key and the storage credentials never leave it.

PlannedBackup Engine
Sync Jobs

A second kind of job next to backups: keep a target in step with a source on its own schedule. Copy a file or database backup onto another host, or replicate one database into another, without building a backup and restoring it by hand every time.

Shipped

Already live

Bigger features from the roadmap that have already shipped. See the full changelog for every release.

  1. v3.2.0August 8, 2026

    Docker Volume Backups

    Docker volumes as a backup source (beta), listed from the target host the way databases already are, so you pick them instead of typing paths. Containers using a selected volume are stopped for the export and started again afterwards, which you can turn off per source when the data is safe to copy live.
