Here's the announcement of the new version 5.7.0. Check out what's new.

We are pleased to announce the release of Bacularis 5.7.0. This version introduces a new Web Access feature that simplifies different backup automations in Bacula environments such as event-driven backup, run automated jobs with custom settings and others. Access can be restricted by time, usage, or source IP address, offering flexible and secure control.

We encourage to read the Web Access documentation chapter. We also published an article where we show example using backup in the event-driven architecture (EDA) with Bacula and the new Bacularis Web Access feature. Both links are available in the Useful links section below.

This release further includes several improvements and fixes to existing features. Notably, the job list loading speed has been significantly improved, thanks to a contribution from Community member Elias Pereira.

At the end we added an option to define maximum number of jobs displayed in the job table. This was a feature request reported by the Community.

We wish you smooth installations and upgrades!
