Percona Backup for MongoDB 2.1.0
On April 18, 2023, we released Percona Backup for MongoDB 2.1.0. It is a distributed, low-impact solution for consistent backups of MongoDB sharded clusters and replica sets. This is a tool for creating consistent backups across a MongoDB sharded cluster (or a non-sharded replica set) and for restoring those backups to a specific point in time.
Release highlights include:
- Incremental physical backups are now generally available, enabling you to use them in production environments. Note that due to the changes in metadata files required for the restore, backups made with previous PBM versions are incompatible for the restore with PBM 2.1.0.
- You can now selectively back up and restore sharded collections. This improves the management of a desired subset of data in sharded clusters and saves you extra costs on data storage and transfer. This is the tech preview feature due to some known limitations.
- The improved handling of master keys for data at rest encryption in Percona Server for MongoDB and the retrieval of the key ID/secret path by PBM from a backup simplifies the environment preparation for the physical restore and improves the restore flow.
