Self promotion ahead: I worked on a SaaS product to backup databases on S3 called DBacked. After some time I decided to open-source most of it. It's not made to backup files, only databases. You can look at the open-source project here: https://github.com/dbacked/agent and the SaaS product here: https://dbacked.com/ |

Though for DB's i like to have near realtime backups. Like barman ( https://www.pgbarman.org ) does for PostgreSQL or Ottomatic ( https://ottomatik.io/ ) for MySQL. Both work with the similar principal of taking a full backup (pgdump, mysqldump, etc.) and then to stream logs (WAL in case of pgsql and binlogs in case of MySQL). These logs allow you to roll forward your full back to a certain point in time. Since the logs are streamed realtime you have a near realtime backup with point in time recovery.
I don't know of an open source alternative for ottomatik BTW. So if anyone knows one...
