HotBackup
MV DBMS platforms sometimes have built-in mechanisms for hot-backup and quick fail-over. Some rely on external software, perhaps products provided by OS vendors.
Other related topics/keywords include TransactionLogging, Journaling, and HotStandby.
This is a place marker for information about hot-backup options available for each MV DBMS platform.
