A: Thank you for letting us share something about the future!

We are currently testing the integration with cPanel, which will allow to restore backups seamlessly with SSO.

In our development pipeline we also have support for CockroachDB and TiDB.

All the above will be of course available to AppSumo users.

About the SFTP backup, currently it's not in our roadmap.
SFTP is becoming obsolete compared to S3-compatible storage due to:

- Scalability: S3 handles larger datasets and more users with better performance.
- Cost Efficiency: S3 offers pay-as-you-go pricing and automatic scaling, reducing overhead.
- Integration: S3 provides APIs for modern cloud applications, unlike SFTP's limited file transfer capabilities.
- Security: S3 has advanced access controls and built-in encryption.
- Durability: S3 offers higher data durability and availability.

Overall, S3-compatible storage is more suitable for modern, scalable, and cost-effective data management.
