## Supported databases
As of now, borgmatic supports PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MySQL, MongoDB, and SQLite
databases directly. But see below about general-purpose preparation and
cleanup hooks as a work-around with other database systems. Also, please [file
a ticket](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/#issues) for additional database
systems that you'd like supported.
borgmatic directly supports [several database
systems](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/reference/configuration/data-sources/).
But if you're looking to backup an unsupported databases system, you can use
general-purpose [preparation and cleanup
hooks](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/how-to/add-preparation-and-cleanup-steps-to-backups/)
as a work-around. These hooks allows you to trigger arbitrary commands or
scripts before and after backups to create and cleanup database dumps for any
database system.
Also, please [file a ticket](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/#issues) for
additional database systems that you'd like borgmatic to officially support.

hooks](https://torsion.org/borgmatic/how-to/add-preparation-and-cleanup-steps-to-backups/).
These hooks allows you to trigger arbitrary commands or scripts before and
