Portabase - Database backup & restore tool for PostgreSQL, MySQL, MsSQL, MariaDB, Firebird SQL, SQLite, MongoDB, Redis and Docker Volume - Portabase/portabase

Hi everyone,

I’m happy to share that Portabase now supports backup and restore for Docker volume!

Portabase is an open-source, self-hosted backup and restore platform, currently supporting 9 databases including PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, Redis, and more.

We’re now expanding it to cover Docker volumes too, because many self-hosted apps do not store critical data only in databases.

Typical use cases include WordPress uploads, Nextcloud user files, media libraries, app configuration data, and more generally any self-hosted service where critical data lives in Docker volumes.

The goal is still the same: make backup and restore simple, reliable, and easy to operate. Portabase uses a central server with lightweight agents running close to your workloads.

If you find bugs, please open an issue on GitHub, we’re actively looking for feedback.

Thanks!

    Nice timing I’m running SQLite + Redis on Railway and was just thinking about backup strategy. Does Portabase handle Railway volumes or only self-hosted Docker environments?

      For databases, you only need to provide the URL, port, and credentials. Portabase then connects using the database’s standard protocol, making it hosting-agnostic (so you can backup databases hosted in self-managed Docker environments, Kubernetes clusters, or cloud platforms).

        It’s a bit different for SQLite, though, because it is not a server-based database engine: it is ultimately just a file.

          ahhh for the server-based ones for sqlite specifically i’m just doing periodic copies of the db file to supabase storage as a backup, nothing fancy
