Backups
Fransys includes a built-in automatic backup system directly in the platform. No third-party service to configure, no cron scripts to maintain — backups are managed natively.
PostgreSQL — Fully operational
PostgreSQL backups are 100% operational and configurable from the Storage tab of the PostgreSQL block:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Backup Retention Days | Backup retention period (default: 14 days) |
| Backup Schedule | Automatic backup schedule |
| Last backups | History and status of recent backups |
What you get
- Automatic backups — Scheduled according to your schedule, without manual intervention
- Configurable retention — Adjust the retention period based on the criticality of your data
- Simple restore — When creating a new PostgreSQL block, choose Bootstrap > From backup to restore from an existing backup
- Viewable history — View the list of backups and their status directly in the interface
tip
For a production database, keep a minimum of 14 days of backups. Adjust the schedule based on how frequently your data changes — a daily backup is suitable for the majority of use cases.

Next steps
We are actively working on extending the native backup system to other services:
- MariaDB — Automatic backups (under development)
- Redis — Automatic snapshots (under development)
- Persistent volumes — Application data backup (under development)
info
The goal is to offer a unified backup solution for all your data, directly from the Fransys interface, without external configuration.
