Incremental backup that uses MySQL

A while back, Ted Ts’o asked for a incremental backup solution that used a database. It reminded me of the talk at the 2009 MySQL Conference & Expo, titled Build your own MySQL time machine.

Chuck and Mats will talk about the backup and replication code, and will show off a web interface, that allows you to go back in time, similar to Apple’s Time Machine in Mac OS X. Its a talk that I most certainly want to attend, as an avid Time Machine user.


Register for the MySQL Conference & Expo 2009 before February 16, and you’ll get an early bird discount (saving $200). April 20-23 2009 will be a rocking few days, see you there.
