The HotBackup API is a specification for a pluggable backup utility. The Tokutek patches to MySQL and MariaDB contain hooks for such a utility.
The community edition is the header file that defines the interface to MySQL, as well as a no-op implementation.
Please report bugs in TokuDB here on github.
We have two publicly accessible mailing lists:
- tokudb-user@googlegroups.com is for general and support related questions about the use of TokuDB.
- tokudb-dev@googlegroups.com is for discussion of the development of TokuDB.
We are also available on IRC on freenode.net, in the #tokutek channel.
The HotBackup community edition is available under the GPL version 2. See COPYING.
