Welcome to LastBackup

LastBackup is the last line of defense for your databases — automated backups to any S3-compatible storage with one-click setup and peace of mind.

What is LastBackup?

LastBackup is a backup-as-a-service platform that takes the complexity out of data protection:

• Multi-Database Support: PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, MongoDB, SQLite
• Simple Setup: Paste your connection string, choose storage, done
• Your Data, Your Control: BYOS (Bring Your Own Storage) mode — we orchestrate, you own
• Set and Forget: Automatic scheduling with retention policies

Core Features

Database Connections

Connect your databases with just a connection string. Supported databases include PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, MongoDB, and SQLite. Each connection is tested before saving, and health checks run automatically.

See Database Connections for detailed setup guides.

Storage Targets

Backup to any S3-compatible storage including AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO, Wasabi, Aliyun OSS, and Tencent COS. All credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM.

See Storage Configuration for detailed setup guides.

Security

• Encryption at Rest: All credentials (database passwords, S3 keys) are encrypted using AES-256-GCM
• Encryption in Transit: HTTPS everywhere, TLS 1.3 minimum
• No Data Access: BYOS mode means we never see your backup files
• Audit Logs: Every backup execution is logged for compliance

Next Steps

• Configure automatic scheduling
• Set up notifications
• Enable multi-storage redundancy
