Storage is where your backups live. DBDock Cloud gives you two options, and you can use both at once.

​
Managed storage

Every account includes DBDock managed storage — encrypted, metered, and ready with zero setup. The free plan includes 1 GB at no cost; paid plans include more. See Billing for current quotas and the pricing page for authoritative numbers.
DBDock meters managed-storage usage and warns you as you approach your quota, so a backup never fails silently for lack of space. When you’re close to the limit, you’ll see an in-app banner and (on eligible plans) an email.

​
Bring your own bucket

Prefer to keep backups in infrastructure you control — for compliance, data residency, or a second copy? Connect your own provider:

AWS S3

S3 and any S3-compatible store.

Cloudflare R2

Zero-egress object storage.

Cloudinary

Media-focused storage.
When you add a bucket, DBDock stores only what it needs to write and read backups, and encrypts those credentials at rest. Backups written to your bucket are still encrypted by DBDock before they leave.

​
Add a bucket

1

Open Storage → Connect your bucket

Choose a provider.
2

Enter credentials

Provide the bucket name, region, endpoint (for S3-compatible providers), and access keys. DBDock validates them before saving.
3

Route backups to it

Pick the bucket as the destination when you create a backup or a schedule, or set it as your default.

​
Deletion safety

DBDock will not silently orphan or wipe backups. Managed storage stays put as part of your plan, and destructive actions on your own buckets are guarded. See Deletion safety.
