Open-Source Backup Software
Bareos is open-source backup and recovery software licensed under AGPLv3. Organizations can inspect the source code, adapt the software to their requirements, develop integrations and operate Bareos without being tied to a proprietary backup format.
Its open architecture supports automation, plugins and integration with existing IT environments. Professional subscriptions and support are available for organizations that need maintained packages and technical assistance.
Secure Backup and Recovery
Bareos protects data across disk, tape and S3-compatible object storage. Communication between Bareos components can be encrypted, while access can be controlled through authentication and role-based permissions.
Bareos also supports client-side data encryption, defined retention policies, WORM media and offline tape storage as part of a secure and ransomware-resilient backup strategy.
Professional Support and Services
Bareos combines open-source backup software with professional services for production environments.
Organizations can choose subscriptions, technical support, consulting, training and sponsored development. The Bareos team and its partner network can assist with backup planning, migration, implementation, configuration reviews, troubleshooting and performance optimization.
Backup for Linux, Windows and Mixed Environments
Bareos provides centralized backup and recovery for Linux, Windows, macOS and FreeBSD systems.
The same platform can protect physical servers, virtual machines, databases and application data across mixed IT environments. Bareos also provides packages for supported ARM64 systems, depending on the operating system and Bareos version.
Certified for Enterprise Linux Environments
Bareos is certified for SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and listed in the SUSE Partner Software Catalog. Bareos also provides packages and support options for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and other widely used enterprise Linux distributions.
These integrations help organizations use Bareos as a centralized Linux backup solution within existing enterprise infrastructure.
