Docker
Sidecar backup agent for Docker volumes and Compose stacks.
Docker hosts often run a half-dozen stateful services on bind mounts and named volumes. CloudIP runs as a sidecar container that knows about your Compose file and backs up the volumes that matter, with pre-stop and post-start hooks for consistency.
It does not interfere with orchestration.
What Docker gets from CloudIP
Sidecar pattern
Adds one container to your stack; no orchestration changes.
Compose-aware
Reads docker-compose.yml to identify volumes worth backing up.
Hooks
Pre-stop and post-start hooks for application-consistent snapshots.
Volume-only mode
Skip the runtime; back up only the data.
How CloudIP shows up for Docker
A practical walkthrough of what changes when this audience runs on the platform.
If you are evaluating CloudIP because of Docker, you are likely already running a stack that integrates around it. CloudIP is built to be a friendly neighbour to Docker rather than a replacement: where Docker is the system of record, CloudIP defers; where CloudIP owns the operational record, Docker reads from a documented endpoint.
The most common pattern is a thin integration with Docker for the parts of the business it already runs, and CloudIP for everything else — accounting, CRM, HR, communications, POS, and backup. Sidecar pattern is what makes that practical at SMB scale.
Because the platform exposes REST endpoints and webhooks for every meaningful state change, the integration with Docker stays under your control. There is no special partner program, no hidden surcharge, and no implementation gating — the same automation primitives are available to every customer on day one.
Common questions from Docker buyers
Yes. Docker backup is one of the named buyer profiles the platform is designed around. Sidecar pattern and Compose-aware that matter most for Docker are part of the standard subscription rather than a tier upgrade.
