Hi community,
I’m one of the maintainers of Portabase, I shared it here for the first time two weeks ago and I have now some updates!
After an initial request from a community user in mid-January, and a few more along the way, we’ve finally added support for Firebird SQL. It seems to have a solid community behind it even though I hadn’t heard of it before.
Quick recap : Portabase is an open-source platform for database backup and restore.
Repository: https://github.com/Portabase/portabase
So it now we support 8 databases: PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB, Redis, Valkey and Firebird SQL
What’s new in version 1.10:
- Support for Firebird SQL (obviously)
- Healthchecks for both the database and the agent (with optional notifications)
- End-to-end tests to prevent regressions (coverage is still light, but we’re working on it)
What’s coming next:
- Support for Microsoft SQL Server
If you’re using Firebird SQL (or any other supported database), we’d really appreciate your feedback. Feel free to open issues if you find any bugs.

Looks very interesting, will try this out. pg_dump and restore stresses me out
Thanks! PostgreSQL is well supported (it was the first database implemented). Feel free to open an issue on GitHub if you want to suggest any improvements.
I had a quick look at the docs… so, can I backup my DB version X and restore it to DB version Y?
Hi, Portabase handles database backup and restoration. It does not manage the migration process, so it depends on the type of database and whether migration is handled automatically or not.
