### Hyper-V Backup plugin ### SQL Backups
That's another story. Creating snapshots and dumping VM is easy. That's a pre-script job ;)
Shall we go that route since alot of good commercial products exist ? Perhaps, provide pre-scripts for major SQL engines
Perhaps, provide an alternative dump | npbackup-cli syntax.
In the latter case, shell (bash, zsh, ksh) would need `shopt -o pipefail`, and minimum backup size set.
The pipefail will not be given to npbackup-cli, so we'd need to wrap everything into a script, which defeats the prometheus metrics.

### Full disk cloning
Out of scope of NPBackup. There are plenty of good tools out there, designed for that job
### Rust rewrite
That would be my "dream" project in order to learn a new language in an existing usecase.
But this would need massive sponsoring as I couldn't get the non-paid time to do so.
### More backends support
Rustic is a current alternative backend candidate I tested. Might happen if enough traction.
