"Basic" (i.e. full) backups have been included in the OSS version since its November 2020 release (20.2): https://www.cockroachlabs.com/blog/backup-restore/

They are still pretty limited compared to what's in the enterprise version, but it's not right to say basic backups are closed source and have never been there.

CockroachDB Core uses 3 licenses: CCL, BSL, Apache

CCL, BSL = "source available"

Apache = open source

Parts of CockroachDB under CCL that do NOT transition to Apache OSS: https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/tree/master/pkg/ccl

    > the sub-tree under pkg/ccl is under a different license (CCL) that does not transition to APL2 after a set duration.
