As TiDB adoption grows for large-scale, distributed workloads, protecting its data becomes more complex than traditional database backup. The distributed architecture, continuously changing data, and strict availability requirements make it challenging to maintain consistent backups, control backup windows, and recover critical data quickly when failures occur.
Distributed TiDB environments require coordinated protection across database components. Backup processes must preserve data consistency.
TiDB can handle high-volume workloads with frequent data changes. Full backups can consume storage and network resources, making incremental protection essential.
A practical protection strategy needs reliable recovery capabilities that help restore critical TiDB data within the required RTO.
Enable the acquisition of consistent data copies while TiDB remains in continuous operation and data is constantly changing, ensuring that backups can be used for reliable recovery.
You should regularly check the integrity and recoverability of your backup data, rather than waiting until a failure occurs to discover that the backups are unusable.
Through mechanisms such as encryption, access control, isolated storage, and immutable backups, the risks posed by ransomware, malicious actions, and tampering with backup data are mitigated.
By utilizing backup data and the necessary log information, the database can be restored to a specified point in time, thereby reducing data loss caused by accidental deletions, logical errors, and other issues.
Support selecting the appropriate recovery granularity and recovery objectives based on actual failure scenarios, such as restoring the entire database or restoring data to a standby environment.
Support full and incremental backup methods, reducing redundant data transfer and storage overhead, and is designed to handle TiDB’s large-scale, continuously growing datasets.
Vinchin's TiDB Backup solution safeguards and streamlines management of mission-critical databases. It ensures data consistency and minimizes downtime through high-efficiency backup and flexible recovery. The solution also supports full backups for precise restoration, while simplifying deployment and reducing resource overhead to guarantee robust business continuity.
Vinchin supports full and incremental backups for TiDB, reducing redundant data transfers and minimizing backup time and storage overhead.
Supports cross-platform recovery and instant recovery, enabling rapid business continuity when the original database environment is unavailable, and provides flexible recovery targets.
Verifies recovery availability through automated backup drills and generate visual verification reports to help administrators identify recovery risks in advance.
Combines virus scanning with WORM (Write Once, Read Many) immutable storage to protect backup data from malware, tampering, and accidental deletion.
Vinchin protects TiDB transaction logs and, in combination with point-in-time recovery, restore the database to a specified point in time to minimize data loss caused by user errors and data corruption.
Vinchin continuously track changes in TiDB data to quickly restore the system to a state closer to what it was before a failure occurs, thereby further reducing the RPO.
By backing up only changed data, Vinchin minimizes redundant data transfer and storage requirements while maintaining reliable TiDB data protection.
Recover TiDB data to the required recovery point with flexible full, incremental, and transaction log backup options.
Vinchin makes it easier to configure backup tasks, monitor protection status, and manage recovery operations from a unified interface, reducing day-to-day administrative effort.
