Cloud/remote backup/sync

rclone - Rsync for cloud storage
rsync for cloud storage. rclone is a command line program to sync files and directories to and from a wide variety of cloud storage providers, providing various additional features

duplicity - Encrypted bandwidth-efficient backup using the rsync algorithm
Duplicity incrementally backs up files and directories by encrypting tar-format volumes with GnuPG and uploading them to a remote (or local) file server. In theory many remote backends are possible; right now local, ssh/scp, ftp, rsync, HSI, WebDAV, and Amazon S3 backends are written.
Because duplicity uses librsync, the incremental archives are space efficient and only record the parts of files that have changed since the last backup. Currently duplicity supports deleted files, full unix permissions, directories, symbolic links, fifos, etc., but not hard links.

rsync - Versatile tool for fast incremental file transfer
Rsync is a fast and extraordinarily versatile file copying tool. It can copy locally, to/from another host over any remote shell, or to/from a remote rsync daemon. It offers a large number of options that control every aspect of its behavior and permit very flexible specification of the set of files to be copied. It is famous for its delta-transfer algorithm, which reduces the amount of data sent over the network by sending only the differences between the source files and the existing files in the destination. Rsync is widely used for backups and mirroring and as an improved copy command for everyday use.

grsync - GUI for rsync
Grsync is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) for rsync, the commandline directory and file synchronization tool. It can be effectively used to synchronize local directories and it supports remote targets as well (even though it doesn't support browsing the remote folder). Sample uses of grsync include: synchronize a music collection with removable devices, backup personal files to a networked drive, replication of a partition to another one, mirroring of files, etc.

monitoring-plugins-rsync - Check rsync servers availability
Checks rsync servers availability, as well as (optionally) individual modules availability. It also supports authentication on modules.
Usage: check_rsync -H [-p ] [-m [,,] [-m [,,]...]]
The only required argument is -H, in which case it will only try to list modules on the Rsync server.

rdiff - Frontend to rsync's delta algorithm
rdiff computes and applies signature-based file differences.

zsync - Client-side Implementation of the Rsync Algorithm over HTTP
zsync is a implementation of rsync over HTTP. It allows updating of files from a remote Web server without requiring a full download or a special remote server application. It uses a metafile, which is created on the server, to determine which parts of a file the user already has; it then downloads the remaining parts via HTTP. No special server or Web server module is needed. It also works with gzip files, and content on the server can be compressed to further reduce download times.
