mysql-backup-helm

A helm chart to backup your MySQL or MariaDB database to an S3 bucket or SFTP from Kubernetes

How it works

This chart provisions a cronjob which runs the ten7/mysql_backup container. It uses the s3cmd command to synchronize with one or more "remotes". Each remote can be either an S3 bucket, or an SFTP server.

Features

• Synchronizes from multiple sources to multiple targets.
• Does not require persistent storage to function.
• Has no persistent container, or a cronjob.
• Supports multiple S3 and SFTP destinations.
• Can be installed multiple times in the same namespace, with different schedules, allowing you to make hourly/daily/weekly/monthly backups.

Requirements

• Connection and credentials for source database servers.
• Connection and credentials for target S3 and/or SFTP providers.
