Resistro Cloud Backup for self-managed Postgres

A narrow Postgres backup and restore baseline with bounded logical-dump support for small self-managed MySQL and MariaDB setups.

Resistro Cloud Backup is a small, bounded backup service for operators who run their own Postgres databases and need a restore baseline they can explain. MySQL/MariaDB support exists as a bounded logical-dump path, not as parity with the Postgres baseline.

What it backs up

  • Self-managed Postgres setups — daily backups on Solo and Starter, hourly from Business
  • Self-managed MySQL and MariaDB databases through a bounded logical dump path
  • Backup data encrypted with AES-GCM before storage
  • Customer-held keys, including the responsibility to keep the key safe

What it verifies

Resistro runs a daily restore-path test as an operating check. Customers can also trigger restore drills for their own backup data and download a restore-evidence PDF.

The daily test verifies that the restore path still works. It is not a hard uptime guarantee, not a fixed restore-time commitment, and not a full emergency validation of every customer database every day.

Where data is stored

The default storage path uses Hetzner data centers in Germany/EU. Backups are stored encrypted; AVV/TOMs, subprocessors, and third-country transfers are reviewed in the privacy package before customer use.

When it fits

Resistro Cloud Backup fits when you run a small self-managed Postgres setup, typically 1 to 10 databases, a recovery point objective of around one day on Solo and Starter — or around one hour from Business — is acceptable, and you need review-friendly evidence that backup and restore paths are checked. MySQL/MariaDB is request-only without a parity promise.

It does not fit when you need managed database support, a self-service restore portal, MySQL/MariaDB PITR or physical/native backup, point-in-time recovery as a current product promise, hard uptime guarantees, service credits, or fixed support response times.
