BackupX dashboard with 30-day backup trends, storage distribution, and task health
Dashboard — 30-day success and failure trends, storage distribution, task volume, and cluster health.
BackupX task list with schedules, targets, retention, tags, RPO, and verification status
Backup tasks — schedules, multi-target policies, retention, tags, RPO goals, and recurring verification.
BackupX storage targets with connection health, capacity usage, and redundancy roles
Storage targets — connection health, live capacity, favourites, and redundancy roles at a glance.
BackupX backup history with success and failure states, checksums, destinations, and retention locks
Backup records — success and failure states, checksums, destinations, execution logs, and retention locks.

Highlights

Capability Details
Backup Types Files/directories (multi-source), MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, SAP HANA (full / incremental / differential / log + parallel channels + retry)
SAP HANA Backint Agent Built-in Backint protocol — HANA's native interface routes data directly to any BackupX storage backend
70+ Storage Backends Alibaba OSS, Tencent COS, Qiniu, S3, Google Drive, WebDAV, FTP + SFTP, Azure Blob, Dropbox, OneDrive and dozens more via rclone
Scheduling Cron + visual editor + auto-retention (by days/count + empty-directory cleanup)
Multi-Node Cluster Outbound-only Master-Agent polling with proxy, private-CA, and SSH-bastion support; Agents run tasks locally with no reverse connectivity required
Security JWT + bcrypt + AES-256-GCM encrypted config + optional backup encryption + full audit log
Notifications Email / Webhook / Telegram on success or failure
Observability Prometheus /metrics endpoint + /health + /ready probes + SLA breach gauge
Audit Webhook HMAC-SHA256 signed forwarding to SIEM / WORM storage for compliance (SOC2 / GDPR)
Flow Control Per-node bandwidth cap + per-node concurrency limit — tune big/small nodes independently
Deployment Single binary + embedded SQLite; no external control-plane database (database backup tools are required on the execution host)

Quick Start

Docker Compose (recommended):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Awuqing/BackupX.git
cd BackupX
docker compose up -d

Prebuilt archive:

curl -LO https://github.com/Awuqing/BackupX/releases/latest/download/backupx-linux-amd64.tar.gz
curl -LO https://github.com/Awuqing/BackupX/releases/latest/download/backupx-linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256
sha256sum -c backupx-linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256
tar xzf backupx-linux-amd64.tar.gz
cd backupx-*-linux-amd64
sudo ./install.sh

Build and install on bare metal:

git clone https://github.com/Awuqing/BackupX.git
cd BackupX
make build
sudo ./deploy/install.sh

For ARM64 hosts, use backupx-linux-arm64.tar.gz. The archive contains backupx, web/, config.example.yaml, and install.sh; run install.sh from the extracted directory.

The Compose quick start defaults to latest for evaluation. Pin BACKUPX_IMAGE to a release tag or digest and review the security and recovery guides before production.

Open http://your-server:8340, choose English or Chinese on the setup screen, create the first administrator account, then follow the 5-minute Quick Start.
