AWS 宣佈 Amazon RDS for MySQL 支援從 Percona Toolkit 備份出來的檔案還原了:「Easily restore an Amazon RDS MySQL database from your MySQL backup」。
Starting today you can easily restore a new Amazon RDS for MySQL database instance from a backup of your existing MySQL database, including MySQL databases running on Amazon EC2 or outside of AWS. This is done by creating a backup using the Percona XtraBackup tool and uploading the resulting files to an Amazon S3 bucket. You then create a new Amazon RDS DB Instance from the backup files in Amazon S3, directly through the RDS Console or AWS Command Line Interface.
備份出來後放到 Amazon S3 上,然後就可以讓 RDS 拉進去了...
This feature is available in all AWS Commercial regions for databases using MySQL version 5.6.
目前在 commercial region 都可以用了,所以代表 GovCloud (US) 還沒 (不過一般情況也沒權限碰到)。
不過他只說 5.6,代表 5.7 還不支援嗎?反正最差的情況就是再升一次 5.6 到 5.7?
