The main features of pg_back are:

- Dump all or a subset of databases into any format supported by pg_dump
- Filter tables and schemas
- Time and count based purge of old dumps
- Dump as a non-superuser role
- Encrypt and decrypt the files with AGE using a key pair or a password
- Upload and download to major Cloud storage providers (S3, GCS, Azure Blob) or any host with SFTP
- Checksum files with sha256sum

This new version allow to store remote files under a defined prefix, along with some bugfixes, see the CHANGELOG.md file in the repository for details.
