Trove uses backup strategies in order to back up the database. The backups are stored as defined in the storage strategy (defaults to Swift), which is at object storage system. The backup is encrypted by default to protect the data in rest.
There can be several use cases of backup and restore in Trove:
- Cold copy of data for recovery purposes
- Point in time snapshot in order to create a different branch of development
- Multiple copies of the database independent of each other for purposes like auditing, running reports based on old data, and so on
The Trove system internally uses backup and restore strategies to seed the replication data (discussed in the next chapter). Let's now dive in and see how the backup/restore methodology works in Trove.
