AutoMySQLBackup with a basic configuration will create Daily, Weekly and Monthly backups of one or more of your MySQL databases from one or more of your MySQL servers. Other Features include: - Email notification of backups - Backup Compression and Encryption - Configurable backup rotation - Incremental database backups Time for a new maintainer.. I first created AutoMySQLBackup in 2002 and since then it's helped many thousands of admins keep their databases backed up.. I always had one basic requirement and that was that it should always be super simple to initially get working.. I would like to hand it over now to someone with the time and skill to keep it updated and take it further.. If you would like to take over the project please get in touch..

This is a fork of the now-defunct Android backup tool SMS Backup. It uses Gmail/IMAP to perform SMS, MMS and call log backups over the network. It is important that you perform the first backup manually. SMS Backup+ needs to know whether you want to upload messages currently stored on your device or not. SMS Backup+ can also backup and restore your call logs. It stores all calls using a separate label (defaults to Call log, but can be changed in "Advanced settings"). If you wish you can set this to the same value as SMS, to make all backups use the same label.

Grsync is used to synchronize folders, files and make backups. It is a rsync GUI (Graphical User Interface).

Advanced archiver (zpaq fork) with deduplication and versioning. Never prune your backups: keeps a forever-to-ever copy (even thousands of versions) of your files, conceptually similar to Mac time machines, or zfs' snapshots, but much more efficiently. Ideal for virtual machine backup and "freezing" zfs snapshots forever. Easily handles millions of files and TBs of data. Allows rsync backups to the cloud (or NAS, or USB) with minimal data transfer, encryption and very limited bandwidth. Highest possibilities of data verification, fast, deep and even paranoid-level, with support for multithread acceleration on SSD/NVMe (real world 1GB/s+). Freeware Win GUI (PAKKA) here https://www.francocorbelli.it/pakka/build/latest No complex repository folders, just one file. Latest "hashers" (SHA-3, BLAKE3 w/HW acceleration on Win, XXH3) 15+ years of developing (2009-now). Seeing is believing! https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz/wiki
