Hi everyone!

I’m one of the maintainers of Portabase, and I’m excited to share about Portabase for the first time in this subreddit.

Repository: https://github.com/Portabase/portabase

Website / Docs: https://portabase.io/

Portabase is an open-source, self-hosted database backup & restore tool. It’s designed to be simple and lightweight, without exposing your databases to public networks. It works via a central server and edge agents, making it perfect for self-hosted or edge environments.

It supports 9 databases:

  • PostgreSQL
  • MariaDB and MySQL
  • SQLite
  • MongoDB
  • Redis and Valkey
  • Firebird SQL
  • Microsoft SQL Server

Key features:

  • Multiple storage backends: local filesystem, S3 (like AWS, MinIO, Garage, Cloudflare R2, etc)
  • Notifications via Discord, Telegram, Slack, webhooks, etc.
  • Cron-based scheduling with flexible retention strategies
  • Restoration and homogenous migration
  • Ready-to-use Docker Compose setup and Helm Charts

What’s coming next:

  • MCP server
  • Point-in-time recovery (PITR) for PostgreSQL
  • UX improvements

Thanks for checking out Portabase, and happy backing up!
