Techulus Cloud can automatically back up databases running in your containers to S3-compatible storage. Backups are triggered on a schedule or manually from the web UI.

​
Supported Databases

The agent detects the database type from the container image name and runs the appropriate dump command:
DatabaseDump Command
PostgreSQLpg_dump -Fc
MySQLmysqldump
MariaDBmysqldump
MongoDBmongodump --archive --gzip
Redisredis-cli BGSAVE
Backups are compressed and uploaded as .tar.gz archives.

​
Configuration
