Foreword

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

Khepri

Khepri is a program that does backups right. It tries to fulfill the following design goals:

Easy: Every obstacle that is between you and a working backup solution, especially regarding complex or otherwise hard to use software. Khepri should be easy to configure and use, so that in the unlikely event of a catastrophic data loss, you are safe. Likewise, restoring data should not be complicated.
Fast: Backing up your data with khepri should only be limited by your network or harddisk bandwidth. Ideally, you should backup your files every day. Nobody does backups if it is so slow it takes too much time. Furthermore, restoring backups should only transfer data that is needed for the files that are to be restored, so that restoring is also fast.
Verifiable: Much more important than backup is restore, so khepri makes it easy to verify regularly that all data can be restored.
Secure: Khepri uses cryptography to guarantee integrity and confidentiality of your data. The location where the backups is assumed to be a shared space where others (e.g. a system administrator) is able to access your backups. Khepri is built to secure your data against such attackers.
