Datakube is a modern method to backup / save your application data which are based in the cloud easily.
You might have already faced that situation: You happily deployed your set of services to a cloud of your choice (e.g. Amazon RDS or Google Cloud SQL) and your nightly snapshots are running just fine. However, you might also want to have backups as simple SQL File Dumps to archive them somewhere else and have them accessible with your normal ecosytem. This is when Datakube comes into play!
Datakube's agent creates dumbs of it's known targets (currently by a .toml file) and a given schedule. Once a particular dump is made, its transferred back to the server and stored safely there. From there, you can grab this dumb with a simple HTTP call and reuse the file whereever you want to for whatver you want to.
Currently it's very early in development and definitely NOT production ready. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
- Continuously updates to target configuration (No restarts!)
- Save files to a storage of your choise (currently only file storage is supported)
- Set different schedules for different targets
- Easy to configure
- Small footprint as its made with go in ❤️
As mentioned, datakube is very early in development and therefore its missing a lot of functionality just know. Features planned already:
- User Management
- Restrict Targets / Dumps per User
- Web UI
- More File Storages (S3. Cloud Storage...)
- More Target providers
- Metrics
