WARNING
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
WARNING: At the moment, consider khepri as alpha quality software, it is not
|
|
yet finished. Do not use it for real data!

Khepri
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
Khepri is a program that does backups right. The design goals are:
|
|
|
|
* Easy: Doing backups should be a frictionless process, otherwise you are
|
|
tempted to skip it. Khepri should be easy to configure and use, so that in
|
|
the unlikely event of a data loss you can just restore it. Likewise,
|
|
restoring data should not be complicated.
|
|
|
|
* Fast: Backing up your data with khepri should only be limited by your
|
|
network or harddisk bandwidth so that you can backup your files every day.
|
|
Nobody does backups if it takes too much time. Restoring backups should only
|
|
transfer data that is needed for the files that are to be restored, so that
|
|
this process is also fast.
|
|
|
|
* Verifiable: Much more important than backup is restore, so khepri enables
|
|
you to easily verify that all data can be restored.
|
|
|
|
* Secure: Khepri uses cryptography to guarantee confidentiality and integrity
|
|
of your data. The location the backup data is stored is assumed not to be a
|
|
trusted environment (e.g. a shared space where others like system
|
|
administrators are able to access your backups). Khepri is built to secure
|
|
your data against such attackers.
