MySQL Enterprise Backup 9.0.1 is a backup utility for MySQL 9.0.1. It is a multi-platform, high-performance tool, offering rich features like “hot” (online) backup, incremental and differential backup, selective backup and restore, support for direct cloud storage backup, backup encryption and compression, and many other valuable features.
While optimized for use with InnoDB tables, MySQL Enterprise Backup is capable of
backing up and restoring all kinds of tables created by any kinds of
storage engines supported by MySQL. The parallelism of its read and
write processes (performed in independent, multiple threads) and its
block-level parallelism (different threads can read, process, or
write different chunks within a single file) allow backup and
restore processes to be completed with great speed, and often with a
significant performance gain when compared to a
logical backup
using tools like
mysqldump.
MySQL Enterprise Backup is a valuable tool for maintaining and safeguarding your MySQL data, and for quick and reliable recovery when accidents or disasters strike. It is part of the MySQL Enterprise Edition, available to subscribers under a commercial license.
