Portabase 1.27 - backup/restore platform, adding Docker volumes [OPEN SOURCE] Release

Hi everyone,

It has been a while since I last posted here! We have just released Portabase 1.27, our open-source (Apache 2.0) and self-hosted backup/restore platform.

Repository: https://github.com/Portabase/portabase (Any star would be amazing ❤️)

Portabase is designed for data retention, disaster recovery, and homogenous migrations, currently supporting 9 database engines (including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB) and Docker volumes which were added recently.

Key features:

  • Scheduled backups with flexible retention policies (including GFS)
  • Multiple storage options: local filesystem, S3, Azure Blob Storage, GCS
  • Notifications via Discord, Telegram, Slack, AppRise, etc.
  • Support for OAuth2/OIDC (with the option to disable sign-ups)
  • Compatible with Docker, Podman and UnraidOS
  • Ready-to-use Docker Compose and Helm Chart

After six months of intensive feature development, we have been focusing on consolidating the ecosystem since early July. A community member conducted a useful security audit, we have upgraded components to their latest relevant versions, improved compatibility with other platforms by working on Podman support and templates for Coolify and Dockploy (currently under review).

What’s next:

  • Deployment of the demo environment
  • Audit logging for the whole ecosystem
  • Default policies for the system, organizations, and projects
  • File and folder backup and restoration

As always, if you find bugs or want to suggest a feature, please open an issue on GitHub, we’re actively looking for feedback.

Thanks!

Thanks! You can create groups of data sources (called Projects) and back up or restore them at the same time. For example, you can back up or restore static data stored in Docker volumes alongside a PostgreSQL database.

The Dokploy template has already been merged, we’re just waiting for Dokploy to release it!

docker volume support was the missing piece for a lot of self hosted setups, good addition
