What is Portabase?

Portabase is a database backup and restore platform designed for migration, disaster recovery, and long-term data protection in self-hosted and decentralized environments.

It relies on a central server orchestrating lightweight agents deployed close to databases. Agents perform encrypted backups sent to remote storage without requiring databases to be publicly exposed.

Portabase currently supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, Firebird, SQLite, MongoDB, Redis and Valkey.

It provides flexible backup strategies, including retention by count, retention by time, and Grandfather-Father-Son (GFS) rotation. The platform natively supports self-hosted, containerized, and Kubernetes deployments. An alert and notification system (using Slack, Telegram, email, etc) allow better observability and reliability.
