MSP360 Backup, formerly CloudBerry Backup, is a self-hosted backup application that copies your files and folders to the cloud storage service of your choice, including Amazon S3, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage, OpenStack, and DreamObjects. This Docker container packages the full desktop application and exposes its graphical interface (GUI) over the web, so you can manage backups from any modern browser or VNC (Virtual Network Computing) client without installing or configuring anything on the client side. The image is built on Alpine Linux for a compact, resource-efficient footprint well suited to home and small-office servers.
