This will save some space on the server by directly upload it to the backup server.

@Robindirksen1 @Dennis Isn't this the same as SFTP Driver?
Dennis
@Webtica No it's not the same, streaming is a different way of uploading the file to the remote server.

Piping to drivers using rclone, rsync may help

The current backup method generates big backup files that are stored in the .ploi folder. If a backup fails the failed file remains sitting in that folder. When a few backups fail it might end up in filling the storage completely.
Also if the total backup size is bigger than the free space you cannot make a backup via Ploi at all right now.
If you want a better solution you need to do something with chunks imo. Only streaming won't really help.

Is the current backup method incremental? Or do you get a full file of the complete site every time you take a backup?
Webtica
Got the same issue with some big sites. Streaming or chunking would help.

It would also be good to have failed backups removed after x days or something.
Carlos Devia
I hope you are talking here about incremental backups. That's really required ala JetBackup.

It would be good if one could also limit the amount of concurrent Streams, as for example some storage providers like Hetzner Storage Box only allow X amount of concurrent connections
