Overview
PG Back Web gives PostgreSQL backups a user interface. Instead of hand written dump scripts spread across cron tabs and forgotten, you register each database once, describe when it should be backed up and where the dump should go, and then watch every run succeed or fail from a single dashboard. It backs up any PostgreSQL server from version 13 to version 18, writes each dump to a local volume or to any S3 compatible object store, applies a retention policy so old dumps are removed on schedule, restores a stored dump into a database of your choosing, and reports the outcome of every run over webhooks.
It suits teams who need their backups to be visible and provable rather than assumed. Every execution is recorded with its status, its duration, the size of the dump it wrote and the destination it wrote to, so a backup that silently stopped working becomes something you can see rather than something you discover during a restore.
Why the cloudimg image
cloudimg ships PG Back Web as a locked down appliance rather than a bare install, because this product holds the keys to other people's databases. It stores the connection string of every database it backs up and the credentials of every object store it writes to, so on the first boot of every instance the encryption key that protects those secrets is generated for that machine alone, and the service refuses to start if that key is missing, blank, or a value published in the project's own documentation. The administrator account is created on that same first boot with a password unique to the instance, before the web port is ever opened, so the image never carries a known login and there is no window in which a stranger could claim the first account. The application and its database both listen on the loopback interface only, with a single reverse proxy in front as the one public entry point, and the client tools for every supported PostgreSQL version ship in the image so a dump or restore never fails for want of a matching binary. The image ships with no stored databases, no destinations and no backup files at all, the complete source is included on disk to satisfy the licence, the base is fully patched with unattended security updates enabled, and every deployment is paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.
