Bacularis-Web

Bacularis Web is the main component of the Bacula web interface.

Bacularis - The Bacula web interface

Bacularis is a web interface designed to configure, manage, and monitor the Bacula backup environment. It offers a complete solution for setting up backup jobs, restoring data, managing tape or disk volumes on both local and remote storage, working with backup clients, and handling daily backup administration tasks. Autochanger management is also supported.

Bacularis includes advanced user management with role-based access control, allowing configuration for regular users. Each user can log in to the web interface and perform backup and restore operations for their own computer data only.

Architecture

The project consists of two web applications:

• the web interface, and
• the Bacularis API, which includes a separate administrative panel.

The web interface can connect to multiple Bacularis API instances, enabling centralized configuration and management of remote Bacula components.

Project background

Bacularis is a friendly fork of Baculum. It was created by the creator of Baculum to simplify its functionality—making it accessible not only to experienced Bacula users but also to beginners and intermediate users.
