Huawei Cloud Backup and Recovery (CBR) vs. Percona XtraBackup

Best for organizations with multiple servers and are super-careful about their data. The Service suits both small and Large scale organizations as there is different plans available and they cater the needs in a specific way, as required. SFS Turbo Server backups are not easy but the CBR Does it with ease.

Well suited to databases < 10TB. For larger than this, I would go with snapshots.

• It provides enormous amount of storage for cheaper cost
• Compatible with all servers and device to access files
• All types of files can stored
• Highly secured
• Faster and easier to access

• Non-blocking backup : Backup process will not put any lock on the database.
• Fast recovery : As it's a file level backup so it's quite fast in both backup and recovery.
• Consistent backup : Xtrabackup always ensures consistent backup.
• Easy to configure and Use.
• Integration with clouds

• Support from Huawei Cloud Backup and Recovery (CBR) team is not good. They take so much time in addressing the query and to solve the problem which we have encountered due to some technical error or glitches.
• The synchronization process is very slow and we need a good internet connection as files get paused and we need to start the action manually which become difficult task sometime.
• The price for storage is very expensive when we need some extra storage as compared to other cloud service providers.

• The only feature that could use some improvement is partial backup restores. For example, I have a multi-tenant database at the schema level running on a single Percona Server instance. As a tenant grows too large for the share instance or becomes a noisy neighbour we need to move a the tenants schema to its own instance with minimal downtime, meaning that we would run the new instance as a replica with replication filters until failover. In terms of doing a consistent backup, there may be challenges and it is currently possible with XtraBackup, but it would be great if the process was simplified and ensured to be consistent.

Takes a bit of getting used to when you first set it up.

Cloud Backup and Recovery by Huawei is more cost effective when I compare it with its Amazon Counterpart, it has more features and the recovery time is way above what the AWS Backup offers. The policies available for data backup is also more flexible with Huawei, which makes making custom policies easier

We have evaluated Mysqldump and MySQL Enterprise backup. Mysqldump is not a scalable solution. MEB is a paid and closed source. As we are truly open-source, we were looking for an open-source solution that was reliable and scalable. Xtrbackup has all the required features to fulfill our requirements.

• Most of our costs reduced by 20%
• Best for ROI
• Easier and faster to perform backups
• Not good with iOS devices

• Secure, reliable, fast and consistent backups. Open source with zero cost.
• We satisfy our regulatory requirements.
