This is kloset

Kloset encapsulates each backup into a self-contained, immutable, structured data asset. Like a container that packages an app with everything it needs, Kloset packages data with context, structure, metadata, and integrity.

Self-contained

Everything your data needs travels with it. No external dependencies.

Immutable

Once created, a Kloset never changes, ensuring data integrity and security.

Queryable

Inspect and query snapshots without restoration. Instant access.

Portable

Move your Klosets anywhere. Same structure, everywhere.

Kloset does for data what Docker containers did for compute

Kloset for Data

Packages data with all metadata and context
Ensures consistent data integrity and structure
Portable across different storage systems
Standardized format for preservation

Docker for Applications

Packages application with all dependencies
Ensures consistent execution environment
Portable across systems
Standardized format for distribution

Community powered, trusted by teams

There must be a way to ensure backups remain accessible 10 or 30 years from now. Built with transparency, tested by the community, and trusted for critical infrastructure.
