What’s the best open source file and backup managemen tool that can upload to AWS and GCP cloud storage, with integrity checking and with pre-upload encryption? I don’t want to start writing one only to discover a powerful thing that already exists in the OSS community and is trusted.

I use Restic [0] for my personal backups and I use Backblaze for the backend, but AWS S3 and anything compatible (of which Backblaze is too) is also an option. I preencrypt all my data and use pass for managing my encryption password and the secrets.

Looks great, thanks!

For the past year I’ve been using Restic for personal devices as well as in a production server environment. Been very happy with it.
