How to Backup MySQL 5.7

If you ever tried to backup MySQL 5.7 with Percona Xtrabackup that comes in percona-xtrabackup package most likely you got error message like this: [crayon-5ba957f33e1f1811481611/] This happens because percona-xtrabackup actually installs version 2.3 that doesn’t support MySQL 5.7. To take copies from MySQL 5.7 you need to use Percona XtraBackup version 2.4 and higher. Starting from […]

Howto Encrypt MySQL Backups on S3

TwinDB Backup supports encrypted backup copies since version 2.11.0. As usual the tool supports natively backup and restore operations, if backup copies are encrypted the tool takes care of decryption.

TwinDB talks on Percona Live 2016

Percona Live is a Christmas in MySQL world. It’s time when all friends and family gather over a glass of beer. Everyone is talking about achievements of the last year and make New Year resolutions for a next one.

There will be two talks from TwinDB this year. One is about data recovery and one – about backups.

The data recovery talk is a kind of traditional talk. I will briefly cover InnoDB files format so you know where to look for data. I will show how to recover data from two most popular accidents: InnoDB tablespace corruption and DROP TABLE or DROP DATABASE. Data recovery is impossible without table structure recovery. I will show how to get the structure from an .frm file or from InnoDB dictionary (think of DROP TABLE when the .frm file is gone). We made a drastic improvement in user …

TwinDB Really Loves Backups

A week or two ago one of my former colleagues (at Percona) Jevin Real gave a talk titled Evolving Backups Strategy, Deploying pyxbackup at Percona Live 2015 in Amsterdam. I think Jervin raised some very good points about where MySQL backup solutions in general fall short. There are definitely a lot of tools and scripts out there that claim to do MySQL backups correctly, but don’t actually do it correctly. What I am more interested though is in measuring TwinDB against the points that Jervin highlighted to see if TwinDB falls short too.

Dependencies

We distribute TwinDB agent as a package that can be installed using the standard OS package management system. For example, using YUM on CentOS, RHEL and Amazon Linux, or using APT …

How To: Setup Daily MySQL Backup on Windows

Protecting information in databases and possibility to restore databases in case of need is the highest priority task in many companies. But not all DBMSs have built-in tools for data protection (tools to backup and restore databases). And MySQL is one of such DBMSs.

Making database backups is one of the most important things in the process of administrating MySQL databases, because some critical data loss can be irreplaceable.
