Currently, MySQL Enterprise Backup supports the following types of cloud storage services:

- Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage

- OpenStack Swift or compatible object storage services

- Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) or compatible storage service

The post Create a Cloud Backup with MySQL Enterprise Backup first appeared on dasini.net - Diary of a MySQL experts.

We are living in the DataLake world. Now almost every oraganization wants their reporting in Near Real Time. Kafka is of the best streaming platform for realtime reporting. Based on the Kafka connector, RedHat designed the Debezium which is an OpenSource product and high recommended for real time CDC from transnational databases. I referred many blogs to setup this cluster. But I found just basic installation steps. So I setup this cluster for AWS with Production grade and publishing this blog.

A shot intro:

Debezium is a set of distributed services to capture changes in your databases so that your applications can see those changes and respond to them. Debezium records all row-level changes within each database table in a change event stream, and applications simply read these streams to see the change events in the same order in which they occurred.

MySQL Enterprise Backup(MEB) has been widely used as the most efficient tool to take backups of huge databases. The storage of backups can be done on-premises – viz, local hard disk, external hard disk drives, network mounted disk. MEB can also stream backups to tape by supporting different Media Management Software like Symantec NetBackup, EMC2 and Oracle Secure Backup. Streaming of backups can also be done using 'ssh' to another machine.

As data keeps growing, instead of expanding the storage, database users are choosing to rely on the growing trend which is the Cloud Storage.

A few facts about Cloud Storage:

1. Offers off-premises storage with AAA(Anytime, Anywhere Access)
2. Sharing of data to make a collaborative effort.
3. Highly fault tolerant, durable and scalable and secure.
4. Cost-effective

To the benefit of our MySQL database users, Mysql …

Shard-Query (source) now supports the MySQL “LOAD DATA INFILE” command.

When you use LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE a single threaded load from the current process will be performed.  You can specify a path to a file anywhere readable by the PHP script.  This allows loading without using the Gearman workers and without using a shared filesystem.

If you do not specify LOCAL, then the Gearman based loader is used.  You must not specify a path to the file when you omit the LOCAL keyword.  This is because the shared path will the pre-pended to the filename automatically.  The shared path must be a shared or network filesystem (NFS,CIFS,etc) and the files to be loaded must be placed on the shared filesystem for the Gearman based loader to work.  This is because workers may run on multiple nodes and …

• Improved caching for Weblobs

Now ClouSE sets the cache control headers for Weblobs.  The cache control headers specify the max-age directive that allows caching content for one year.  This makes proxies and content delivery networks (CDN) more efficient.  The change resolves this support issue.

• Improved error handling on startup

Now database requests fail if …
