Duplicati vs Tyk
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Duplicati and Tyk — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Duplicati vs Tyk: at a glance
What is Duplicati?
Duplicati can now restore from versioned storage as it looked at a past point in time.
The 2.4.0.105 canary adds --remote-point-in-time, which reads a versioned bucket as it was at a chosen time, read-only, so a damaged or tampered destination can be restored without manually copying old versions. Object-lock handling now detects unsupported destinations, and Duplicati Storage gains object locks and can act as a secondary destination.
What is Tyk?
Tyk 5.16 reaches RC5 with small gateway fixes, still without release notes.
Tyk 5.16.0 is on its fifth release candidate. RC3 fixed a case where stripping the listen path could change rewrite behaviour, and RC4 and RC5, cut at the same minute, carry a deep-copy fix for OAS config data. The 5.13.4 patch line is at RC5 with dependency and doc-comment updates.

Duplicati
5.0INFRA · APIS
Duplicati can now restore from versioned storage as it looked at a past point in time.
◆ Current state
The 2.4.0.105 canary adds --remote-point-in-time, which reads a versioned bucket as it was at a chosen time, read-only, so a damaged or tampered destination can be restored without manually copying old versions. Object-lock handling now detects unsupported destinations, and Duplicati Storage gains object locks and can act as a secondary destination.
◆ Where it's heading
The 2.4 canaries keep pushing recoverability: restore tests, filelist recovery, Hyper-V and MSSQL as restorable sources, and now point-in-time reads against versioned storage. Together they target ransomware and corruption scenarios, while the stable 2.4.0.x line receives the fixes.
◆ Prediction
Expect these canary features to land in the next 2.4 stable release, with more work on Duplicati's own storage service.
Tyk
5.0INFRA · APIS
Tyk 5.16 reaches RC5 with small gateway fixes, still without release notes.
◆ Current state
Tyk 5.16.0 is on its fifth release candidate. RC3 fixed a case where stripping the listen path could change rewrite behaviour, and RC4 and RC5, cut at the same minute, carry a deep-copy fix for OAS config data. The 5.13.4 patch line is at RC5 with dependency and doc-comment updates.
◆ Where it's heading
Release work is spread across 5.16 candidates and a 5.13 patch train, both carrying security bumps and small gateway fixes. The release candidates are tagged with merge titles rather than notes, so the feed doesn't show what 5.16 adds.
◆ Prediction
Expect 5.16.0 and 5.13.4 finals; the feature content of 5.16 should only become visible in its release notes.
