Learn how to design, take, and restore backups for Tungsten Cluster so you can meet realistic RPO/RTO goals and recover quickly from disasters.
This session covers backup planning, compares tools like mysqldump, xtrabackup, snapshots, and file copy, and shows how to run cluster-integrated backups with datasource/cluster backup commands and cron automation.
You’ll also walk through restoring both cluster and external backups using cctrl, handling binlog positions, purging THL, using the Tungsten tracking schema, and recovering nodes cleanly whether the backup came from a primary or a replica.
