Built for reliability

Everything you need for database backups

Designed to be set up once and forgotten. Reliable, efficient, and always there when you need it.

Native dump integration

Datashelter relies on each database's own client to generate dumps, ensuring full compatibility and reliable exports every time.

Built-in compression and encryption

Dumps are compressed and encrypted client-side with AES-256 before leaving your server. Smaller transfers, zero exposure.

Retention policies with downsampling

Keep daily, weekly, and monthly snapshots automatically. Recommended policies are applied out of the box so storage costs stay low without any manual cleanup.

Per-table restore

Roll back one table, not the whole database.

Restore a single table into a staging database to validate data before cutting over. No full-server rollback, no downtime, no guesswork.
