phpMyBackupPro Adds Multi-Server Backup Support

The development team behind phpMyBackupPro has announced a new feature that allows users to back up databases across multiple MySQL servers using a single installation. This enhancement is especially beneficial for hosting providers and enterprises managing several separate database systems.

New Capabilities

• Configure and manage backups from multiple MySQL hosts
• Single interface for scheduling and restoring backups across accounts
• Increased security through individual user configuration

Why It Matters

Previously, users had to install separate instances of the tool for each server. This new functionality reduces overhead and simplifies management for system administrators. According to early testers, the setup takes only a few minutes and integrates seamlessly with existing workflows.

Additional Improvements

• Better logging and email alerts for multi-server jobs
• Enhanced FTP backup configuration with separate profiles
• Updated language packs and improved cron documentation

Release Context

This update is part of the 2008 Q1 roadmap for phpMyBackupPro, focusing on scalability and automation. More updates are expected later in the year to support cloud storage targets and user interface improvements.
