Description-en: High-performance MySQL backup tool
Mydumper (aka. MySQL Data Dumper) is a high-performance multi-threaded
backup (and restore) toolset for MySQL and Drizzle. The main developers
originally worked as Support Engineers at MySQL (one has moved to
Facebook and another to SkySQL) and this is how they would envisage
mysqldump based on years of user feedback.
.
Mydumper features
.
Lightweight C source
Up to 10x faster dumps compared to mysqldump
Consistent snapshots for transactional and non-transactional tables
File compression on-the-fly
Binary log dumps
Multi-threaded restore utility
Daemon mode for timed snapshots and continuous binary logs
.
Mydumper is still under active development but is well tested/used in
production on some large installations.
