Proxmox Backup Server is an enterprise-class client-server backup software that backups virtual machines, containers, and physical hosts. It is specially optimized for the Proxmox Virtual Environment platform and allows you to backup and replicate your data securely. It provides easy management with a command line and web-based user interface and is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3 (GNU AGPL, v3).
Proxmox Backup Server supports incremental backups, data deduplication, compression, and authenticated encryption. Using Rust as implementation language guarantees high performance, low resource usage, and a safe, high quality code base. It features strong encryption done on the client side. Thus, it’s possible to backup data to not fully trusted targets.
The project is developed and maintained by Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH.
Any corrections, comments or suggestions are all welcome and appreciated.
