We are planning to use the snapshot feature that takes a backup of a table with 1.2 TB of data. We are planning to export the data using ExportSnapshot and copy the resulting files to a NFS mount periodically.
Out infrastructure team is very concerned about the amount of data that will be going over the wire and how long it will take This is just one table. There may be other tables in the future that we want to back up. So I wanted to get a sense of what others are doing with ExportSnapshot. What is the size of the tables that are backed up and whether the concerns raised by our infra team are valid? Thanks Afroz
