New feature: Archive Custom Name

We are excited to announce the launch of a new feature in Cloudback: Custom Archive Name Patterns. This enhancement empowers you to personalize the naming conventions of your backup archives, making data management more intuitive and efficient.

Why Custom Archive Names Matter

Organizing backups effectively is crucial for quick data retrieval and overall system efficiency. With custom archive name patterns, you can:

  • Improve Organization: Tailor archive names to include specific details like dates, repository names, or account identifiers.

  • Enhance Retrieval: Quickly locate the backups you need without sifting through generically named files.

  • Ensure Consistency: Establish a standardized naming convention that aligns with your workflow or organizational policies.

How It Works

The feature utilizes the templating engine, allowing you to define dynamic templates for your archive names. By incorporating variables and functions, you can create meaningful and consistent names that reflect the contents and context of each backup.

Example Template

{{ date.now | date.to_string "%Y-%m-%d" }}-{{ context.RepositoryName }}-backup

This template generates archive names like 2023-10-05-MyRepository-backup, incorporating the current date and repository name.
