Cloud for PostgreSQL, MySQL\MariaDB and MongoDB backup tool. We care about uptime, availability and security of your backups, so you can focus on your work and sleep well at night
The price is depended on the space you can use to store backups per DB. Usually it is cheaper than maintaining your own Databasus instance manually (with server, storage, monitoring, reservation, spending time, etc.)
A calculator is used instead of fixed rates to keep the price low. You can precisely configure the amount of storage you need, so you only pay for what you use — at any DB size.

Keeps recent backups frequently, older ones less often — broad time at the lowest cost. It is enough to keep the following amount of backups in GFS:
Daily
7
Weekly
4
Monthly
9
Yearly

You can fine-tune retention values (change daily count, keep only monthly, keep N latest, etc.)

Common questions about Databasus Cloud, pricing and how it compares to self-hosted
Yes, you can adjust your storage at any time. If you need more space as your databases grow, simply upgrade your plan and the additional storage becomes available immediately.
Likewise, if you find you are using less than expected, you can downgrade to a smaller plan to reduce costs. There are no penalties or lock-in periods for changing your storage allocation.
No. Databasus Cloud offers the exact same features as the self-hosted version — there are no paywalled extras, no premium tiers and no hidden limitations. Databasus is fully open source under the Apache 2.0 license, not an 'open core' model.
The cloud option simply means we handle the infrastructure, uptime and updates for you, so you can focus on your work instead of maintaining servers. You can switch between cloud and self-hosted at any time with no vendor lock-in.
The most effective way to lower your cloud bill is to use GFS (Grandfather-Father-Son) retention policy. GFS keeps daily, weekly, monthly and yearly backups on a rotating schedule. It dramatically reduces the total number of stored backups compared to keeping every single one.
For example, instead of storing 365 daily backups for a full year, GFS might keep 7 daily, 4 weekly, 12 monthly and 1 yearly — just 24 backups covering the same time span. This means you need significantly less storage, which directly lowers your monthly price.
