They aren't actually related at all, other than perhaps an API call that says 'backup'. Actual implementation and end results are wildly different. So my question would be, how would you go about solving that situation? I could absolutely get on board with sharing an API and even scheduler, but Ekko and Freezer are two distinct projects solving different issues with different infrastructure requirements and I am not aware of anyway to share APIs between projects other than merging the projects.
