Send your backups here. Know they can be restored.
Backup endpoint + arrival alerts. Monthly restore verification on Verified.
SSH key-only. Restricted backup user. No interactive shell. Provider-independent.
Backups exist. But you don't know if they work.
- Backups are running, but you've never tested a restore.
- Provider snapshots live on the same infrastructure you're trying to protect against.
- You'd discover a restore failure at the worst possible moment.
- Backup arrival monitoring is missing or ignored.
A backup you can't restore isn't a backup. It's risk you're carrying.
What this is (and isn't)
What this is
- External backup destination
- Designed for production VPS
- Monitored for arrival
- Monthly restore verification on Verified tier
What this is not
- Not a backup tool (use your own)
- Not a hosting provider
- Not managed DevOps
- Not incident response
This is scope discipline. We handle the destination and verification. You handle the backup job.
Four steps. No complexity.
Point your existing backup tool at us. Start receiving arrival alerts and monthly restore verification.
1. Create account
Sign up. Get your backup endpoint immediately. No sales calls.
2. Point your backup job
Configure your existing backup tool to send to our endpoint. Works with common tools: restic, borg, rsync, pg_dump, mysqldump.
3. Receive arrival alerts
Get notified if backups stop arriving. No silent failures.
4. Monthly verification on Verified
Upgrade to Verified tier for monthly restore testing and recovery receipts.
Copy. Paste. Start backing up.
Once you have your endpoint credentials, configure your backup tool in minutes.
restic via SFTP
export RESTIC_REPOSITORY=sftp:backup@endpoint.prodvps.com:/vault export RESTIC_PASSWORD=your-encryption-key restic backup /var/www /etc/nginx
rsync over SSH
rsync -avz --delete \ -e "ssh -i /root/.ssh/backup_key" \ /var/www \ backup@endpoint.prodvps.com:/vault
pg_dump to endpoint
pg_dump -U postgres mydb | gzip | \ ssh -i /root/.ssh/backup_key \ backup@endpoint.prodvps.com \ "cat > /vault/db-$(date +%F).sql.gz"
Your actual credentials: Replace endpoint.prodvps.com with your specific endpoint hostname. We send SSH keys and exact connection details when you sign up.
Linux VPS backups (files + Postgres/MySQL dumps)
Two tiers. Clear boundaries.
Start with Vault for immediate off-site storage. Upgrade to Verified when you need proof.
Vault
$49/mo
Immediate action, minimal overhead
Secure backup endpoint
Retention guardrails (14 days protected, 30-day retention)
Arrival monitoring
Alerts if backups stop
Works with common tools
Verified
$99/mo
Ownership and proof
Everything in Vault
Monthly restore to isolated environment
Basic health verification
Recovery Receipt with evidence
Timestamps and restore metrics
Vault gets backups off-site. Verified proves you can restore.
Most customers choose Verified once backups are flowing.
If your setup is unusual, we'll tell you fast.
The Recovery Receipt
Verified tier includes monthly restore testing. You get a Recovery Receipt showing what was tested, when, and whether it worked.
This is evidence you can keep. Not a dashboard you have to check.
Recovery Receipt
PASSWhat this proves: Your backup arrived, was restored to a clean environment, and basic health checks passed. You know the restore path works before you need it in production.
Good fit / Not a fit
Good fit if:
- VPS-based applications
- Founders with real data at risk
- Teams without dedicated ops
- Need external backup destination
- Want restore verification, not hope
Not a fit if:
- Hobby projects
- On-prem environments
- Looking for free storage
- Need managed backup tool
- Want incident response service
Enterprise ops background. Focused execution.
ProdVPS is intentionally run as a focused service with direct operator ownership. No handoffs. No ticket queues. No escalation ladders.
I've been paged at 2am for systems that couldn't go down. I've written the postmortems. I know what production actually requires.
The person selling you this service is the person who handles incidents and wakes up when things break.
