Pluton

Pluton is a free, open-source backup solution that gives you complete control over your data protection. Unlike cloud-dependent alternatives, this self-hosted platform encrypts your data on your device before upload, ensuring privacy and security throughout the backup process.

Key capabilities include:

• 70+ cloud storage integrations - Connect to Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Google Drive, and dozens of other providers without vendor lock-in
• End-to-end encryption and compression - Built on the proven Restic engine to keep data private while minimizing storage needs
• Automated incremental backups - Schedule periodic backups that only save changes, reducing transfer times and storage usage
• 3-2-1 backup strategy - Implement multiple copies across different storage locations with built-in replication
• Lightweight deployment - Runs on minimal hardware (50MB idle memory) via Docker or standalone executable on any operating system
• Real-time monitoring - Track backup progress, access detailed logs, and receive instant notifications via Slack, Discord, email, or push notifications
• Flexible restoration - Browse backup snapshots like a file manager, restore entire snapshots or specific files, or download as TAR archives
• Smart retention policies - Automatically manage storage by defining rules to keep, prune, and rotate old snapshots
• Advanced automation - Execute custom scripts before or after backups for database dumps or system maintenance
• Enhanced security - Two-factor authentication protects your backup infrastructure

Set up your first backup in under 5 minutes with an intuitive interface designed for both simplicity and power. Your data stays on your infrastructure, never passing through third-party servers.
