What is it?

Dabcup is a tool in order to handle databases backups easily. You can centralize all you backup policies on a single server, and then store dumps to many different hosts (SSH, S3, FTP).

How does it work?

You just need to describe your policies in a simple configuration (see conf/dabcup.yml) and then run the command: ‘dabcup foo dump` to backup your database ’foo’.

How to install it?

You need Ruby plus the following gems: aws-s3 and net-ssh.

sudo apt-get install ruby rubygems sudo gem install aws-s3 net-ssh
