:Performance: The whole software stack is written in :term:`Rust`,
which provides high speed and memory efficiency.
:Compression: Ultra fast `LZ4`_ compression is able to compress
:Compression: Ultra fast Zstandard_ compression is able to compress
several gigabytes of data per second.
:Encryption: Backups can be encrypted at client side using AES-256 in
GCM_ mode. This authenticated encryption mode (AE_) provides very
high performance on modern hardware.
:Open Source: No secrets. You have access to the whole source tree.
:Support: Commercial support options available from `Proxmox`_.
