wyng-backup | Fast Time Machine-like backups | Continuous Backup library

wyng-backup is a Python library typically used in Backup Recovery, Continuous Backup applications. wyng-backup has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. However wyng-backup build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.

Wyng is able to deliver faster, more efficient incremental backups for logical volumes. It accesses logical volume metadata (instead of re-scanning data over and over) to instantly find which data has changed since the last backup. Combined with a Time Machine style storage format, it can also prune older backups from the archive very quickly, meaning you only ever have to do a full backup once and can send incremental backups to the same archive indefinitely and frequently. Having nearly instantaneous access to volume changes and a nimble archival format enables backing up even terabyte-sized volumes multiple times per hour with little impact on system resources. Wyng sends data as streams whenever possible, which avoids writing temporary caches of data to disk. And Wyng's ingenious snapshot rotation avoids common aging snapshot space consumption pitfalls. Wyng also doesn't require the source admin system to ever mount processed volumes, so it safely handles untrusted data in guest filesystems to bolster container-based security.
