What is it?

Portabase is a self-hosted backup and restore tool for database instances. It covers PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, SQLite, Firebird, MSSQL Server, Redis, Valkey, Docker volumes and files, with a web dashboard for managing backup operations.

Backups are handled by Portabase agents, which run alongside your data sources and carry out the operations on the dashboard's behalf. Restore is supported for most relational and document engines, while Redis and Valkey currently support backup only. Version coverage is listed per engine, for example PostgreSQL 12 through 18 and MySQL 5.7 through 9.

Portabase can be installed with a CLI, Docker, Docker Compose, Helm on Kubernetes, or Unraid. It is released under the Apache-2.0 license.
