About:
Bareos-client is the backup daemon component for the Bareos (Backup Archiving Recovery Open Sourced) system. It runs on client machines to efficiently backup files, databases, and system states to a central backup server. It supports incremental backups, encryption, and compression, ensuring secure and efficient data protection.
Key Features:
  • Client-side incremental backups with deduplication
  • Strong encryption and compression support
  • Centralized management via Bareos Director
  • Support for Linux, Unix, and Windows clients
Use Cases:
  • Enterprise-grade server backups for Linux/Unix systems
  • Secure off-site data replication and disaster recovery
Alternatives:
  • bacula – Bareos is a community fork of Bacula with more frequent updates and open governance
  • restic – Restic is simpler and agentless but lacks Bareos' centralized enterprise management features
  • borgbackup – Borg offers excellent deduplication but is primarily focused on local/archival storage rather than client-server architecture
