Hi,
we're currently considering the purchase of a FlexClone license for some of our database environment (MySQL 5, DOT 7.3.2, ~2TB data, growing fast), but I've been wondering if it provides the functionality we need.
AFAICT, what we'll get with FlexClone is a read-write snapshot -- which is fine --, but the real question is about service migration between two copies : let's suppose we have a dev and a production database ; how would we migrate the service (e.g. a MySQL server) between the two?
I realise hot migration will be complicated to implement, but do some of you already have played with this kind of things before?
