Why You Need the CDP for MySQL Addon (included w/Advanced Edition)

When it comes to backups MySQL databases require special handling, and MySQL is no exception. There are a variety of MySQL backup methods available and they all work differently.  R1Soft CDP for MySQL integrates Continuous Data Protection® with an online hot backup (snapshot) of MySQL databases to provide fast, efficient and safe MySQL backups.  Both MyISAM and InnoDB storage engines require that tables be locked and flushed before a backup operation can take place.  R1Soft MySQL ensures that this happens and  carefully coordinates it with the point-in-time file system snapshot.

Windows - MySQL Snapshots are performed by integration between the CDP Windows Agent and Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy

If you use CDP to backup MySQL and don’t use the R1Soft MySQL functionality  then the table lock and flush operation won’t take place – with the result that your MySQL backup will likely be corrupt.
