+A local or remote file & database backup script tailored for multiple virtualhost backups. Yet it actually works for a lot of backup tasks.
+
+OBackup is designed from ground to make the backup process as reliable as possible.
+It divides the whole backup process into tasks, allowing each task to execute for a certain amount of time.
+If a task doesn't finish in time, it's stopped and the next task is processed.
+Before a task gets stopped, a first warning message is generated telling the task takes too long.
+Every action gets logged, and at the end of the backup process, if there was a warning, a stopped task or an error an email will be sent.
+
+Obackup manages to backup MariaDB / MySQL databases and files (with or without root rights).
