CLUSTER BACKUP-BACKUPS-CLOUD · 32 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2017-09-05
Encrypted deduplicating backup tools
This cluster consists of backup applications that emphasize encryption, deduplication, and compression, often supporting scheduled backups to local or cloud destinations. Dated entries appear sporadically from 2013 through early 2026, with no strong concentration in any period. MacMove leads in traction with 16 stars, while other members show minimal activity.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 20 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
