I would love to use CI's database backup functions, but they exhaust memory too quickly. I have a fairly large database and it chokes every time.
Backing this up daily is becoming a very serious and necessary duty as the business depends on this application to run. Now, it needs to be done daily, so I'm planning on creating a 2 step plan on a cron job ... first to create the backup file, then the script will use CI to ftp it somewhere.
Has anyone come up with a phpMyAdmin style database backup? Wondering if there is something out there that people have used with CI.
Integration with CI is kind of a necessity.
Thanks for any ideas/opinions.
