No more complicated configuration, just a single form to automate backups: select databases, backup (full, diff, tran log), encrypt, compress, send to a folder, FTP or cloud service. SQLBackupAndFTP is a software that backups SQL Server, MySQL, and PostgreSQL Server databases, performs regular full, differential, and transaction log backups, runs file/folder backup, zips and encrypts the backups, stores them on a network or on an FTP server or in the cloud (Amazon S3 and others - we're constantly adding more), removes old backups, and sends an e-mail confirmation on the job's success or failure. SQLBackupAndFTP is ideal for any SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Azure SQL, or Amazon RDS SQL database where backups should be sent to FTP, SFTP, FTPS, NAS, local or network folder, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Box, Amazon S3 (and any S3-Compatible storage), Azure Storage, Backblaze B2, Yandex.Disk. It is especially useful for any SQL Server versions, including Azure SQL and Amazon RDS SQL.

Django-MySQL extends Django’s built-in MySQL and MariaDB support their specific features not available on other databases. A new cache backend that makes use of MySQL’s upsert statement and does compression. Named locks for easy locking of e.g. external resources. Extra checks added to Django’s check framework to ensure your Django and MySQL configurations are optimal. Django-MySQL comes with a number of extensions to QuerySet that can be installed in a number of ways - e.g. adding the QuerySetMixin to your existing QuerySet subclass.
