Since Duplicacy stores complex backup images of your files, you cannot access the individual files directly from your storage drive, you need to use the Restore option in Duplicacy to download or restore your files. Other features include email notification on completed backups, include/exclude patterns, support for Volume Shadow Copy, integrated restore option, and more. The program can store your backup on a local drive, Amazon S3, Dropbox, MS Azure, Google Cloud or and SFTP server of your choice. There is almost nothing to configure other than your backup schedule and the backup target. While this sounds rather complicated, Duplicacy is very easy to use.

So, i've gave a try to Duplicacy on my servers. I've checked restic for sure but it was missing some nice features of BorgBackup. A two-step fossil collection algorithm is devised to solve the fundamental problem of deleting unreferenced chunks under the lock-free condition, making deletion of old backups possible. If i've moved from BorgBackup to Duplicacy, it's because i wanted to keep the way BorgBackup works but without the dependency to a server bin.

The program is built on top of a new idea called Lock-Free Deduplication, which works by relying on the basic file system API to manage deduplicated chunks without using any locks. Gilbert, the developer (who is very helpful, by the way), suggested it might be memory corruption and asked that I try again without -threads 32 and to try a different machine. You can delete older backups without affecting your current backup sets. I made a post on the Duplicacy forum as I was certain I must have been doing something wrong, or perhaps Duplicacy was buggy. Smart backup tool for local and cloud storage backupsĭuplicacy can back up your files to several cloud storage services with (optional) client-side encryption and the highest level of deduplication, which reduces disk space usage by eliminating storage of duplicate files.ĭuplicacy only backs up files that have changed and stores each backup as a complete set.
