The MySQL Clone Plugin Is Not Your Backup

This blog post discusses the limitations of the MySQL Clone plugin.

The MySQL clone plugin significantly simplifies the process of replica provisioning. All you need to do is:

  • Ensure that the source server has binary logs enabled
  • Grant appropriate permissions
  • Execute the CLONE INSTANCE  command on the recipient

This works extremely easily when you provision a new replica that doesn’t have any data.

Due to its simplicity, you may want to use the clone plugin instead of a backup to restore a server that survives data inconsistency or corruption. E.g., after crash.

However, if you have data on your replica, you need to consider how you will recover if the CLONE INSTANCE  command fails with an error.

CLONE INSTANCE  command, by default, works as follows:

  • Checks prerequisites on the replica
  • Wipes out data …

Verify MySQL Backups With TwinDB Backup Tool

By Maksym Kryva.

If you don’t verify backups you may safely assume you don’t have them.

It often happens that MySQL backups can be invalid or broken due to a software bug, or some hidden corruption. If you are lucky enough, hours and days will be needed to resurrect a database from a bad backup copy. If you ran out of luck quota, you may lose a lot of data. Hence the importance of data backup verification. Not many companies do backups, and even less verify them. To make the verification problem easier, we have added a verify command to the TwinDB Backup Tool.

What the command does is that it takes a backup copy, restores it, prepares (applies redo logs, fixes permissions and so on) and runs a MySQL instance on it. Then it checks if the recovered database is healthy. You can …

MySQL Backup Strategies and Tools – MinervaDB Webinar

MinervaDB Webinar – MySQL Backup Strategies and Tools 

Most often Database Systems outages happen due to user error and it is also the biggest reason for data loss / damage or corruption. In these type of failures, It is application modifying or destroying the data on its own or through a user choice. Hardware failure also contributes to database infrastructure crashes and corruption. To address these sort of data reliability issues, you must recover and restore to the point in time before the corruption occurred. Disaster Recover tools returns the data to its original state at the cost of any other changes that were being made to the data since the point the corruption took place. MinervaDB founder and Principal, hosted a webinar (Thursday, June 18, 2020 – 06:00 PM to 07:00 PM PDT) on MySQL backup strategies and tools addressing the topics below:

Azure VM Application Consistent MySQL DB Disk Snapshots


Backup of Database is the pillar of our system which is necessary and mandatory to provide us data incase of crash, new machine provisioning and many other scenarios listed here
As part of the backup process, a snapshot is taken, and the data is transferred to the Recovery Services vault with no impact on production workloads. The snapshot provides different levels of consistency, as described below:1. Application-consistent: App-consistent backups capture memory content and pending I/O operations. App-consistent snapshots use a VSS writer (or pre/post scripts for Linux) to ensure the consistency of the app data before a backup occurs.When you're recovering a VM with an app-consistent snapshot, the VM boots up. There's no data corruption or loss. The apps start in a consistent state.2. File-system consistent: File-system consistent backups provide consistency …
