RPOPulse

RPOPulse is a web app (with optional lightweight desktop agents) that continuously verifies database backups by performing automated, isolated restore drills and producing evidence-grade reports. Instead of trusting “backup succeeded” logs, it spins up ephemeral environments, restores the latest snapshots/WAL/binlogs, runs integrity checks, and validates key queries and row counts against expectations. It supports PostgreSQL and MySQL first, then expands to SQL Server and MongoDB. The product focuses on one job: reduce the time between a silent backup failure and you finding out. It also tracks RPO/RTO drift over time, alerts when restore times exceed thresholds, and stores immutable audit trails for compliance. This is not a full backup tool; it sits on top of your existing backup stack (S3, GCS, Azure Blob, pgBackRest, Percona XtraBackup, etc.) and tells you if you can actually recover.
