What will you be working on this month?
- Continue Cloud backup S3 plugin and test module
- Test Parameters and Functions
- Test all apis and UI parts if any isses on it.
- APi for backup data is deduplicated and encrypted
- API for backup storage can be local or cloud storages, including clod storages
- Backup data is deduplicated and encrypted.
- Backup storage can be local or cloud storages, including cold storages.
- Allows multiple clients to concurrently access a backup repository using lock-free operations.
- Backups by default are append-only on the repository.
- The operations are robustly designed and can be safely aborted and efficiently resumed.
- Snapshot organization is possible by hostname, backup paths, label and tags. Also a rich set of metadata is saved with each snapshot.
- Retention policies and cleaning of old backups can be highly customized.
- Follow-up backups only process changed files, but still create a complete backup snapshot.
- In-place restore only modifies files which are changed.
Please summarize your development goals into a few sentences or bullet points:
After talking with my development group a refactor of the Proxmox backup server code by Proxmox has necessitated additional work causing us to be behind this last month by about two weeks. This has pushed out the release of screen shots that were planned for the end of May into mid June. I believe we are still on budget, but slightly off-track time wise for this reason.
