Distributed Backups in Multi-Region YugabyteDB Clusters

Distributed Backups in Multi-Region YugabyteDB Clusters

Our post Getting Started with Distributed Backups in YugabyteDB details the core architecture powering distributed backups in YugabyteDB. It also highlights a few backup/restore operations in a single region, multi-AZ cluster. In this post, we perform distributed backups in a multi-region YugabyteDB cluster and verify that we achieve performance characteristics similar to those observed in a single region cluster.

We configured a 9 node cluster with 3 availability zones across 2 regions and repeated the benchmark introduced in the post.

Getting Started with Distributed Backups in YugabyteDB

YugabyteDB is a distributed database with a Google Spanner-inspired strongly consistent replication architecture that is purpose-built for high availability and high performance. This architecture allows administrators to place replicas in independent fault domains, which can be either availability zones or racks in a single region or different regions altogether. These types of multi-AZ or multi-region deployments have the immediate advantage of guaranteeing organizations a higher order of resilience in the event of a zone or region failure.
