+
+---
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Set Up Credentials
+
+```bash
+# For AWS S3
+export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-access-key"
+export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="your-secret-key"
+export AWS_REGION="us-east-1"
+
+# For MinIO
+export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="minioadmin"
+export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="minioadmin123"
+export AWS_ENDPOINT_URL="http://localhost:9000"
+
+# For Backblaze B2
+export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-b2-key-id"
+export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="your-b2-application-key"
+export AWS_ENDPOINT_URL="https://s3.us-west-002.backblazeb2.com"
+```
+
+### 2. Backup with Cloud URI
+
+```bash
+# Backup to S3
+dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud s3://my-bucket/backups/
+
+# Backup to MinIO
+dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud minio://my-bucket/backups/
+
+# Backup to Backblaze B2
+dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud b2://my-bucket/backups/
+```
+
+### 3. Restore from Cloud
+
+```bash
+# Restore from cloud URI
+dbbackup restore single s3://my-bucket/backups/mydb_20260115_120000.dump --confirm
+
+# Restore to different database
+dbbackup restore single s3://my-bucket/backups/mydb.dump \
+    --target mydb_restored \
+    --confirm
+```
+
+---
+
+## URI Syntax
+
+Cloud URIs follow this format:
+
+```
+<provider>://<bucket>/<path>/<filename>
+```
+
+**Supported Providers:**
+- `s3://` - AWS S3 or S3-compatible storage
+- `minio://` - MinIO (auto-enables path-style addressing)
+- `b2://` - Backblaze B2
+- `gs://` or `gcs://` - Google Cloud Storage
+- `azure://` - Azure Blob Storage (coming soon)
+
+**Examples:**
+```bash
+s3://production-backups/databases/postgres/
+minio://local-backups/dev/mydb/
+b2://offsite-backups/daily/
+gs://gcp-backups/prod/
+```
+
+---
+

+dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud gs://my-bucket/backups/
+```
+
+---
+
+## Features
+
+### Multipart Upload
+
+Files larger than 100MB automatically use multipart upload for:
+- Faster transfers with parallel parts
+- Resume capability on failure
+- Better reliability for large files
+
+**Configuration:**
+- Part size: 10MB
+- Concurrency: 10 parallel parts
+- Automatic based on file size
+
+### Progress Tracking
+
+Real-time progress for uploads and downloads:
+
+```bash
+Uploading backup to cloud...
+Progress: 10%
+Progress: 20%
+Progress: 30%
+...
+Upload completed: /backups/mydb.dump (1.2 GB)
+```
+
+### Metadata Synchronization
+
+Automatically uploads `.meta.json` with each backup containing:
+- SHA-256 checksum
+- Database name and type
+- Backup timestamp
+- File size
+- Compression info
+
+### Automatic Verification
+
+Downloads from cloud include automatic checksum verification:
+
+```bash
+Downloading backup from cloud...
+Download completed
+Verifying checksum...
+Checksum verified successfully: sha256=abc123...
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+### Local Testing with MinIO
+
+**1. Start MinIO:**
+```bash
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.minio.yml up -d
+```
+
+**2. Run Integration Tests:**
+```bash
+./scripts/test_cloud_storage.sh
+```
+
+**3. Manual Testing:**
+```bash
+# Set credentials
+export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=minioadmin
+export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=minioadmin123
+export AWS_ENDPOINT_URL=http://localhost:9000
+
+# Test backup
+dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud minio://test-backups/test/
+
+# Test restore
+dbbackup restore single minio://test-backups/test/mydb.dump --confirm
+
+# Test verify
+dbbackup verify-backup minio://test-backups/test/mydb.dump
+
+# Test cleanup
+dbbackup cleanup minio://test-backups/test/ --retention-days 7 --dry-run
+```
+
+**4. Access MinIO Console:**
+- URL: http://localhost:9001
+- Username: `minioadmin`
+- Password: `minioadmin123`
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Security
+
+1. **Never commit credentials:**
+   ```bash
+   # Use environment variables or config files
+   export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="..."
+   ```
+
+2. **Use IAM roles when possible:**
+   ```bash
+   # On EC2/ECS, credentials are automatic
+   dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud s3://bucket/
+   ```
+
+3. **Restrict bucket permissions:**
+   - Minimum required: GetObject, PutObject, DeleteObject, ListBucket
+   - Use bucket policies to limit access
+
+4. **Enable encryption:**
+   - S3: Server-side encryption enabled by default
+   - MinIO: Configure encryption at rest
+
+### Performance
+
+1. **Use multipart for large backups:**
+   - Automatic for files >100MB
+   - Configure concurrency based on bandwidth
+
+2. **Choose nearby regions:**
+   ```bash
+   --cloud-region us-west-2  # Closest to your servers
+   ```
+
+3. **Use compression:**
+   ```bash
+   --compression gzip  # Reduces upload size
+   ```
+
+### Reliability
+
+1. **Test restores regularly:**
+   ```bash
+   # Monthly restore test
+   dbbackup restore single s3://bucket/latest.dump --target test_restore
+   ```
+
+2. **Verify backups:**
+   ```bash
+   # Daily verification
+   dbbackup verify-backup s3://bucket/backups/*.dump
+   ```
+
+3. **Monitor retention:**
+   ```bash
+   # Weekly cleanup check
+   dbbackup cleanup s3://bucket/ --retention-days 30 --dry-run
+   ```
+
+### Cost Optimization
+
+1. **Use lifecycle policies:**
+   - S3: Transition old backups to Glacier
+   - Configure in AWS Console or bucket policy
+
+2. **Cleanup old backups:**
+   ```bash
+   dbbackup cleanup s3://bucket/ --retention-days 30 --min-backups 10
+   ```
+
+3. **Choose appropriate storage class:**
+   - Standard: Frequent access
+   - Infrequent Access: Monthly restores
+   - Glacier: Long-term archive
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Connection Issues
+
+**Problem:** Cannot connect to S3/MinIO
+
+```bash
+Error: failed to create cloud backend: failed to load AWS config
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+1. Check credentials:
+   ```bash
+   echo $AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
+   echo $AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
+   ```
+
+2. Test connectivity:
+   ```bash
+   curl $AWS_ENDPOINT_URL
+   ```
+
+3. Verify endpoint URL for MinIO/B2
+
+### Permission Errors
+
+**Problem:** Access denied
+
+```bash
+Error: failed to upload to S3: AccessDenied
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+1. Check IAM policy includes required permissions
+2. Verify bucket name is correct
+3. Check bucket policy allows your IAM user
+
+### Upload Failures
+
+**Problem:** Large file upload fails
+
+```bash
+Error: multipart upload failed: connection timeout
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+1. Check network stability
+2. Retry - multipart uploads resume automatically
+3. Increase timeout in config
+4. Check firewall allows outbound HTTPS
+
+### Verification Failures
+
+**Problem:** Checksum mismatch
+
+```bash
+Error: checksum mismatch: expected abc123, got def456
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+1. Re-download the backup
+2. Check if file was corrupted during upload
+3. Verify original backup integrity locally
+4. Re-upload if necessary
+

+
+## Examples
+
+### Full Backup Workflow
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Daily backup to S3 with retention
+
+# Backup all databases
+for db in db1 db2 db3; do
+    dbbackup backup single $db \
+        --cloud s3://production-backups/daily/$db/ \
+        --compression gzip
+done
+
+# Cleanup old backups (keep 30 days, min 10 backups)
+dbbackup cleanup s3://production-backups/daily/ \
+    --retention-days 30 \
+    --min-backups 10
+
+# Verify today's backups
+dbbackup verify-backup s3://production-backups/daily/*/$(date +%Y%m%d)*.dump
+```
+
+### Disaster Recovery
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Restore from cloud backup
+
+# List available backups
+dbbackup cloud list \
+    --cloud-provider s3 \
+    --cloud-bucket disaster-recovery \
+    --verbose
+
+# Restore latest backup
+LATEST=$(dbbackup cloud list \
+    --cloud-provider s3 \
+    --cloud-bucket disaster-recovery | tail -1)
+
+dbbackup restore single "s3://disaster-recovery/$LATEST" \
+    --target restored_db \
+    --create \
+    --confirm
+```
+
+### Multi-Cloud Strategy
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Backup to both AWS S3 and Backblaze B2
+
+# Backup to S3
+dbbackup backup single production_db \
+    --cloud s3://aws-backups/prod/ \
+    --output-dir /tmp/backups
+
+# Also upload to B2
+BACKUP_FILE=$(ls -t /tmp/backups/*.dump | head -1)
+dbbackup cloud upload "$BACKUP_FILE" \
+    --cloud-provider b2 \
+    --cloud-bucket b2-offsite-backups \
+    --cloud-endpoint https://s3.us-west-002.backblazeb2.com
+
+# Verify both locations
+dbbackup verify-backup s3://aws-backups/prod/$(basename $BACKUP_FILE)
+dbbackup verify-backup b2://b2-offsite-backups/$(basename $BACKUP_FILE)
+```
+
+---
+
+## FAQ
+
+**Q: Can I use dbbackup with my existing S3 buckets?**  
+A: Yes! Just specify your bucket name and credentials.
+
+**Q: Do I need to keep local backups?**  
+A: No, use `--cloud` flag to upload directly without keeping local copies.
+
+**Q: What happens if upload fails?**  
+A: Backup succeeds locally. Upload failure is logged but doesn't fail the backup.
+
+**Q: Can I restore without downloading?**  
+A: No, backups are downloaded to temp directory, then restored and cleaned up.
+
+**Q: How much does cloud storage cost?**  
+A: Varies by provider:
+- AWS S3: ~$0.023/GB/month + transfer
+- Backblaze B2: ~$0.005/GB/month + transfer
+- MinIO: Self-hosted, hardware costs only
+
+**Q: Can I use multiple cloud providers?**  
+A: Yes! Use different URIs or upload to multiple destinations.
+
+**Q: Is multipart upload automatic?**  
+A: Yes, automatically used for files >100MB.
+
+**Q: Can I use S3 Glacier?**  
+A: Yes, but restore requires thawing. Use lifecycle policies for automatic archival.
