About Duplicati
Duplicati turns Hyper-V and MSSQL backups into restorable, named sources.
Duplicati ships a canary roughly weekly and patched its 2.4 stable line on October 7. The 2.4.0.1 stable release focuses on restore reliability, abort handling and security hardening, and adds a reduced reporting mode that strips text and file names from anything leaving the machine. The October 11 canary makes Hyper-V machines and MSSQL databases first-class sources that can be restored to their original location.
