Rclone allows you to access files on cloud storage from a command-line interface. It's a more feature-rich alternative for cloud vendor's web storage interfaces. More than 40 cloud storage products support Rclone, including S3 object storage, business and consumer file storage services, and standard transfer protocols. Rclone offers powerful cloud equivalents of the Unix commands rsync. cp. mv. mount. ls. ncdu. tree. rm. and cat. Rclone's familiar syntax supports shell pipeline support and provides --dry-run protection. It can be used in scripts, on the command line, and via its API. Rclone is a data manager that takes care of your data. It keeps timestamps and verifies checkssums at all time. Transfers with limited bandwidth or intermittent connections can be restarted from the last file transferred. You can verify the integrity of your files. rclone uses server-side transfers whenever possible to minimize local bandwidth usage and transfer from one provider to the next without using the local disk.

Kopia has a secure and scalable architecture that can backup everything, from small laptops to large servers. Kopia is an open-source backup/restore software that's fast and secure. It can manage filesystem snapshots in remote storage. Kopia uploads files and directories to remote storage called Repository. It also maintains historical point-in time snapshot records based upon defined policies. Each snapshot is always an incremental one. No data from previous snapshots is ever re-uploaded into the repository based upon file content. Kopia recognizes large files and will not upload them again after they are moved or renamed. Multiple computers or users can share the same repository. If users share the same files they will be uploaded only once. Kopia can mount the contents a Repository's local disk and you can use standard file copy tools to do a selective or complete restore.
