## Encryption
AES-256-GCM encryption for secure backups:
```bash
# Generate key
head -c 32 /dev/urandom | base64 > encryption.key
# Backup with encryption
dbbackup backup single mydb --encrypt --encryption-key-file encryption.key
# Restore (decryption is automatic)
dbbackup restore single mydb_encrypted.sql.gz --encryption-key-file encryption.key --target mydb --confirm
```
## Incremental Backups
Space-efficient incremental backups:
```bash
# Full backup (base)
dbbackup backup single mydb --backup-type full
# Incremental backup
dbbackup backup single mydb --backup-type incremental --base-backup mydb_base.tar.gz
```
## Cloud Storage
Supported providers: AWS S3, MinIO, Backblaze B2, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage.
```bash
# AWS S3
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="key"
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="secret"
dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud s3://bucket/path/
# Azure Blob
export AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT="account"
export AZURE_STORAGE_KEY="key"
dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud azure://container/path/
# Google Cloud Storage
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/credentials.json"
dbbackup backup single mydb --cloud gcs://bucket/path/
```
See [CLOUD.md](CLOUD.md) for detailed configuration.
## Point-in-Time Recovery
PITR for PostgreSQL allows restoring to any specific point in time:
```bash
# Enable PITR
dbbackup pitr enable --archive-dir /backups/wal_archive
# Restore to timestamp
dbbackup restore pitr \
--base-backup /backups/base.tar.gz \
--wal-archive /backups/wal_archive \
--target-time "2024-11-26 12:00:00" \
--target-dir /var/lib/postgresql/14/restored
```
See [PITR.md](PITR.md) for detailed documentation.
## Backup Cleanup
Automatic retention management:
```bash
# Delete backups older than 30 days, keep minimum 5
dbbackup cleanup /backups --retention-days 30 --min-backups 5
# Preview deletions
dbbackup cleanup /backups --retention-days 7 --dry-run
```
## Configuration
### PostgreSQL Authentication
```bash
# Peer authentication
sudo -u postgres dbbackup backup cluster
# Password file
echo "localhost:5432:*:postgres:password" > ~/.pgpass
chmod 0600 ~/.pgpass
# Environment variable
export PGPASSWORD=password
```
### MySQL/MariaDB Authentication
```bash
# Command line
dbbackup backup single mydb --db-type mysql --user root --password secret
# Configuration file
cat > ~/.my.cnf << EOF
[client]
user=root
password=secret
EOF
chmod 0600 ~/.my.cnf
```
### Configuration Persistence
Settings are saved to `.dbbackup.conf` in the current directory:
```bash
--no-config # Skip loading saved configuration
--no-save-config # Prevent saving configuration
```
## Performance
### Memory Usage
Streaming architecture maintains constant memory usage regardless of database size:
| Database Size | Memory Usage |
|---------------|--------------|
| 1-100+ GB | < 1 GB |
### Optimization
```bash
# High-performance backup
dbbackup backup cluster \
--max-cores 32 \
--jobs 32 \
--cpu-workload cpu-intensive \
--compression 3
```
Workload types:
- `balanced` - Default, suitable for most workloads
- `cpu-intensive` - Higher parallelism for fast storage
- `io-intensive` - Lower parallelism to avoid I/O contention
## Requirements
**System:**
- Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD
- 1 GB RAM minimum
- Disk space: 30-50% of database size
**PostgreSQL:**
- psql, pg_dump, pg_dumpall, pg_restore
- PostgreSQL 10+
**MySQL/MariaDB:**
- mysql, mysqldump
- MySQL 5.7+ or MariaDB 10.3+
