About Kopia
Kopia is a backup and restore tool for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It creates encrypted snapshots of selected files and directories rather than imaging a whole machine, with client-side end-to-end encryption, compression, data deduplication, and error correction.
Snapshots can be stored locally, on network-attached storage, or in cloud storage. Supported backends include Amazon S3 and S3-compatible services, Azure Blob Storage, Backblaze B2, Google Cloud Storage, WebDAV, and SFTP, plus several providers through Rclone. Multiple machines can back up to the same storage location.
Kopia ships as both a command-line interface and a graphical application, KopiaUI. A Kopia Repository Server lets several clients share a single server-managed repository. It is licensed under the Apache License 2.0.
