mydumper

A better mysqldump replacement with modern features

MyDumper is a modern and logical take on mysqldump to provide a more modern feature set and useful backups. It consists of the 'mydumper' and it's complimentary utility 'myloader'. The primary reasons for using this utility are: 1. Parallelism (hence, speed) and performance (avoids expensive character set conversion routines, efficient code overall, inline compression, etc) 2. Easier to manage output (separate files for tables, dump metadata, etc, easy to view/parse data) 3. Consistency - maintains snapshot across all threads, provides accurate master and slave log positions, etc 4. Manageability - supports PCRE for specifying database and tables inclusions and exclusions This package is not compiled with SSL support because of dependencies on the percona SQL server libraries.
