Duplicati VPS hosting.

Yes. Duplicati is free, open-source software, so there is no license fee for the Backup tool itself. With Duplicati VPS hosting you pay only for the server package, and the current prices load live in the packages section. If you send Backups to a third-party backend such as S3 or Backblaze B2, that provider bills its storage separately.

• No license fee for Duplicati
• You pay only for the VPS package
• Cancel anytime

You need a VPS with enough RAM for Duplicati and its local database, enough disk for anything you store on the server, and a Backup destination. Order a ZAP VPS, deploy Duplicati from One-Click Apps, open the web UI and create your first Backup job. Root and SSH access stay available for custom setups.

• A KVM VPS from the packages above
• Duplicati deployed via One-Click Apps (Coolify)
• A destination such as S3, B2, SFTP or WebDAV
• A strong encryption passphrase, stored safely

Order a VPS, open One-Click Apps in the panel and pick Duplicati from the Coolify app marketplace. Coolify pulls the container, attaches its volumes and publishes it, so you skip manual Docker Compose and reverse proxy work. Once it runs, open the Duplicati web UI, set an access password and add a Backup job. Read the One-Click Apps guide

• Order your VPS
• Choose Duplicati in One-Click Apps
• Open the Duplicati web UI
• Create and schedule your first Backup job

It depends on the role. As a Backup runner that pushes data to S3 or B2, Duplicati needs little disk, so a smaller package with some RAM headroom for its local database usually works. If the VPS stores Backups itself as an offsite target, size the disk to your data plus retained versions. You can move to a larger package later as your data grows.

• Backup runner: focus on RAM and CPU
• Offsite target: disk for data plus versions
• Large file sets: more RAM for the local database
• Upgrade later as your Backup volume grows

Yes. Run Duplicati on your PCs or NAS and point them at the VPS over SFTP. The data arrives already encrypted, so the VPS only stores unreadable blocks. That gives you the offsite copy of the 3-2-1 rule: three copies of your data, on two different media, with one kept offsite. For very large archives, our storage VPS packages offer more disk space.

• Clients encrypt before they upload
• SFTP target on your own VPS
• Retention handled per client job

Duplicati encrypts every Backup with AES-256 on the source machine before upload, so the storage backend only sees encrypted blocks. Your passphrase is the key: lose it and nobody can restore those Backups, including support. Protect the web UI with a password, keep the VPS updated and test restores regularly. Linux security tips in the Help Center

• Client-side AES-256 encryption
• Store your passphrase in a safe place
• Password-protect the web UI
• Run test restores regularly

Duplicati backs up files and folders such as configs, database dumps, Docker volumes and web roots, not a bootable disk image. To roll back the complete server, use the VPS Backups in the ZAP panel; restores and manual Backups there require ZapX Pass. Many admins combine both: panel Backups for the whole system, Duplicati for versioned, encrypted offsite copies of the data that matters. How VPS Backups work

• Duplicati: files, configs, volumes, dumps
• Panel Backups: the whole VPS
• Restores and manual Backups need ZapX Pass

Our VPS servers run at locations in Europe and America, and the one-click Duplicati deploy works the same everywhere. Pick the location closest to the machines that send or restore Backups, or choose a different region than your primary data for geographic separation. For North American setups, many users start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles.

• Locations in Europe and America to choose from
• Same one-click deploy at every location
• Separate regions for true offsite copies
