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

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.

Vulnerabilities

No vulnerabilities reported

Install npbackup

On Windows, use NPBackupInstaller.exe to install NPBackup into program files. On Linux, just copy npbackup to /usr/local/bin or use pip install npbackup. Copy the example config from model examples/npbackup.conf.dist into the directory where npbackup is installed. You can adjust the parameters directly in the file, or via a config GUI by launching npbackup --config-file=npbackup.conf --config-gui. Once configured, you can launch manual backups via npbackup --backup. Those can be scheduled. Windows schedule is created automatically by the installer program. On Linux, you'll have to create a cronjob or a systemd timer. Since NPBackup is configured to only proceed with backups when no recent backups are detected, you should consider scheduling npbackup executions quite often. The default schedule should be somewhere around 15 minutes. You can use npbackup --list or the GUI to list backups.
Just run the npbackup executable and configure it. Prebuilt binaries can be found here.
List current backups
Launch a manual backup
See if last backup is recent enough
