ggBackup is a modern backup infrastructure designed for reliable Minecraft server environments.
Instead of simple file-copy scripts, ggBackup runs backups using a fully asynchronous execution system with a clean layered architecture.
This ensures backups run safely in the background while your server stays fully operational. ✅
