Scheduled backups from one accessory

Run kamal-backup init, fill in the generated config, and boot the accessory. The container runs kamal-backup schedule by default.

Database and file snapshots

Dump PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, or SQLite with native tools, then snapshot file-backed Active Storage volumes through restic.

Restores you can rehearse

Restore production backups locally or into scratch production-side targets, run verification commands, and record the result.
