## About the product

DB Mover is a web-based, open-source database migration and backup tool for developers and engineering teams that need to move data or generate backups without using database CLI utilities.

It provides a single interface to run same-engine database transfers or exports, handling common configuration details in guided forms:
- **Copy source to target (same engine)** across **MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, and Firebase** (Firestore and Realtime Database), by selecting an engine and pasting source and target connection strings; cross-engine migration (e.g., MySQL to PostgreSQL) is not supported
- **Instant backup downloads** that generate a compressed archive of source data for audits, risky schema changes, or environment handoffs
- **Live progress and streaming logs** (via Server-Sent Events) during runs so teams can verify each step before closing the tab
- **Saved configuration restart** support to rerun a migration if needed
- **Credentials held in memory only**: connection strings are used only for the active job and never written to disk; backup files stored temporarily on Cloudflare R2 are encrypted at rest, accessible only via time-limited (2-hour) links, and auto-deleted after 24 hours

Available on **Web** (browser-based access only; no installation needed for the hosted version). It can also be **self-hosted via Docker** or built manually from source.

Built for **B2B technical teams**, including backend developers, DevOps engineers, and platform teams managing database migrations, backups, and environment-to-environment data copies.

Notable for being **free and open source** (MIT License, ~70 GitHub stars) and requiring **no account**, which can suit teams that want a quick, UI-driven alternative to tools like `pg_dump`, `mongodump`, `mysqldump`, and `redis-cli`. Support runs through GitHub Issues on its repository rather than a dedicated helpdesk.
