Mysql dump to separate files with archive exclusion
We run some LAMP server mostly on EC2 infrastructure. Considering the servers in different locations and environments there are no unified automate service for backpacking Mysql databases into separate files. And the other hand we don’t want to regular backup handle the fat archive tables.
