Hi all, I have two servers that have production data on them, and then one server where I would like to keep an active copy of the data.
Currently, there is a job that runs in the middle of the night that basically does a mysqldump --host=production_server --all-databases | mysql --host=backup_server It takes a long time to copy over all the data, when in reality, it's not changing that much. The great thing about this approach is that yesterdays tables are very nearby and easily accessible in the case where someone fat-fingers some data. The trick to this is that I want the backup server to be one day behind the production server, not real time mirrored, so maybe replication isn't the right thing, I am not sure. I am using the innodb storage engine for most things, though there are a few myIsam tables. Advice appreciated. Thank you.
