Abstract
With the progress of society and the improvement of the degree of information technology, the data storage capacity of enterprise business is becoming larger. More and more enterprises choose to hand over the storage business to specialized cloud manufacturers. Generally, for the security and reliability of user data, cloud service providers (CSP) will conduct incremental or full backups of user data frequently. However, with the expansion of business and the increase of user data volume, the burden of data backup required by CSPs is becoming heavier. At present, most CSPs use open-source Xtrabackup for hot database backup and recovery, but Xtrabackup has shortcomings in compression rate and decompression speed.
To better improve Xtrabackup, we analyzed the backup and recovery process of Xtrabackup and fully explored the factors that affect its compression rate and decompression speed. Finally, an optimization strategy is proposed to optimize the original Xtrabackup. Experiments show that the proposed optimization scheme can increase the compression rate by 30%–50%, reduce the recovery time by 40%, and the total compression time by 25%.
