Postgresus is a self-hosted database backup tool centered on PostgreSQL, built for people who want a practical UI to configure, schedule, and verify backups without living in cron files and shell scripts. It’s designed to manage multiple databases from one place, run automated backups on a schedule, and keep you informed when jobs succeed or fail so you notice problems before you need a restore. The project emphasizes flexible storage destinations, letting you keep backups locally or push them to external/object storage providers depending on your infrastructure and retention needs. It also leans into “ops-friendly” deployment, commonly running in containers and aiming for a straightforward setup flow so small teams can adopt it quickly. As the project evolved, it broadened beyond a single-database focus toward a more general backup-management experience, including better organization, access control patterns, and operational visibility.
