kandi X-RAY | btrbck Summary

btrbck is a Java library typically used in Backup Recovery, Continuous Backup, Amazon S3 applications. btrbck has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has build file available, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Traditional backup systems have two inherent pain points which are solved by the use of BTRFS snapshots for backup:. BTRBCK works with so called snapshot streams. All data of an application (Database, File store, ...) has to be placed in the working directory of a single stream. Then snapshots of the working directory can be taken and transferred to another system. Streams are organized in stream repositories. This allows to share some configuration (like the destination host to push snapshots to) and to perform bulk operations (take a snapshot for each stream in the repository). There are two types of stream repositories: application stream repositories, which contain a working directory for each stream, and backup stream repositories, which do not contain working directories. Besides this, the two repository types have identical functionality. Backup stream repositories are intended to be used on backup hosts, where no working directories are required, while application stream repositories are required to run applications. To set up a backup, your server and your backup host need to use a BTRFS file system. Create an application stream repository on the server and a backup stream repository on the backup host. Now you can create streams on the server and sync them to the backup host.

QUESTION

How to disable azure cosmos db continious backup

Asked 2022-Feb-22 at 10:59

I enabled the Azure cosmos DB continuous backup for one of my Cosmos DBs.
How can I disable it? It just says you have successfully enrolled in continuous backup.

I am not sure if you have seen this message in the portal when you created the account/also mentioned in the doc

"You will not be able to switch between the backup policies after the account has been created"

since you need to select either "Periodic" or "Continuous" at the creation of Cosmos Account, it becomes mandatory.

Update:

You will not see the above in portal anymore, you can Switch from "Periodic" to "Continous" on an existing account and that cannot be reverted. You can read more here.

QUESTION

Consistency of Continuous backup of Azure Cosmos DB

Asked 2021-Nov-25 at 17:15

What would be the consistency of the continuous backup of the write region if the database is using bounded staleness consistency? Will it be equivalent to strong consistent data assuming no failovers happened?

Thanks Guru

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Nov-25 at 17:15

Backups made from any secondary region will have data consistency defined by the guarantees provided by the consistency level chosen. In the case of strong consistency, all secondary region backups will have completely consistent data.

Bounded staleness will have data that may have stale or inconsistent data inside the defined staleness window (minimum 300 seconds or 100k writes). Outside of that staleness window the data will be consistent.

Data for the weaker consistency levels will have no guarantees for consistency from backups in secondary regions.

QUESTION

Mongo atlas recommends cloud provider snaphots for backup - Is it effective?

Asked 2020-May-19 at 10:12

MongoDB has deprecated the continuous back up of data. It has recommended using CPS (Cloud provider snapshots). As far as I understood, snapshots isn't really going to be effective compared to continuous backup coz, if system breaks, then we can only be able to restore the data till the previous snapshot which isn't gonna make the database up-to-date or close to it atleast.

Am I missing something here in my understanding?

Cloud provider snapshots can be combined with point in time restore to give the recovery point objective you require. With oplog based restores you can get granularity of one second.
