Open Source Python Backup Software

**Burn To The Brim** is a highly efficient archiving utility designed to solve the classic subset-sum (bin packing) optimization challenge. It intelligently selects and groups files and directories (documents, high-fidelity media, or raw back-ups) to optimally fill recordable Blu-Rays, USB drives or custom-capacity storage drives. By recursively scanning your designated folders, BTTB matches item sizes to your media capacity, finding a near-perfect selection in milliseconds and an absolute perfect packing configuration in just a few seconds. Burn to the Brim 4.0.0 introduces state-of-the-art machine learning semantic coherence logic to BTTB's classical packing algorithms.

Cloud Export is a tool to automatically extract your data from web applications and save it to your local file system for backup purposes, but more extensive than Google Takeout. Plans are based on http://www.dataliberation.org.

DiscSpan is a tool that will take that a large directory full of files and automatically burn a series of DVDs to near capacity, without the need or hassle of creating individual ISOs while keeping the files individually accessible.

Easy Backup is a simple backup application written in Python that can backup selected files and save them into tar files. It also backs up the ownership and permissions of the file.

Fleuron is a silent flash drive copier. When a flash drive is connected, Fleuron automatically starts copying the data with a Breadth First Search algorithm. In this way, the root directories are copied first and as time passes, deeper directories are copied. Fleuron also randomly stops for random amounts of seconds to allow the drive to be safely removed and to avoid detection. Fleuron can be used for data backup, flash synchronization and undetectable data copying. Note: Currently Fleuron only works on Linux systems.

A flexible client/server backup system written in python, which uses Pyro (an RPC API) to implement a robust interface.

JabSync is a program intended to synchronize the rosters of two (or more) distinct Jabber accounts. It is written in Python and uses the jabberpy library.
