DBAegis Community v1.0.0: test your backup and restore workflow

[ILOGICSOFT]

Backups are only useful if you can restore them.

DBAegis Community v1.0.0 is available for DBAs, SREs, platform engineers, and
self-hosters who want a visible, self-hosted backup-and-restore workflow instead
of scattered commands and undocumented recovery steps.

Community scope

The no-license-required Community edition currently supports DBAegis-local
logical backup and restore for:

• PostgreSQL
• MySQL
• MongoDB

It includes one local administrator, up to three active database connections,
up to three schedules, backup history, restore jobs, and basic retention. Cloud
storage, physical backup/restore, PITR, additional engines, notifications,
RBAC/MFA, LDAP, audit/reporting, and self-backup are paid-edition capabilities.

Start here

• Download the latest release: https://github.com/ILOGICSOFT/dbaegis-community/releases/latest
• Read the installation guide: https://github.com/ILOGICSOFT/dbaegis-community/blob/main/docs/INSTALL_UPGRADE_UNINSTALL.md
• Review the exact edition limits: https://github.com/ILOGICSOFT/dbaegis-community/blob/main/docs/PRODUCT_EDITIONS.md
• Check supported workflows: https://github.com/ILOGICSOFT/dbaegis-community/blob/main/docs/BACKUP_RESTORE_SUPPORT.md

Start on a clean, non-production Linux VM. Verify the release checksum, connect
a non-production database, run a logical backup, and restore into a disposable
target. Then validate the recovered data with an application-relevant query.

Ten design partners wanted

We are looking for ten practitioners willing to test one real Community
workflow. The evaluation is deliberately small:

1. A short discussion about your current backup process.
2. An assisted installation on a safe VM if useful.
3. One supported database connection.
4. One logical backup.
5. One restore into a disposable target.
6. A candid debrief about installation friction, missing documentation, and
   whether the workflow improved recovery confidence.

There is no requirement to buy anything or publish a testimonial. We will not
use your name, company, quote, or results without explicit permission.

Reply here if you want to participate, use Discussions for questions and ideas,
or open an issue for a reproducible defect. Do not post credentials, customer
data, hostnames, storage URIs, logs containing secrets, or backup contents.
Suspected vulnerabilities should be reported privately through GitHub Security
Advisories.
