data snapshot at a certain point of time is going to be considered?

GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue · 2 comments

Hi, 
I am designing an application that data in Scalaris can be stored on disk by 
snapshot at a certain point of time periodically. But I don't know if this idea 
is possible. As I know, the latest version of Scalaris does not provide such 
convenience. 
    So, whether the data snapshot is going be considered or not is what I'm eager to know, and I think this function would be important for Scalaris in many applications in the future. I would be very appreciate if you have any suggestions of how to snapshot data in the cluster.

Thanks.

Snapshot support is also on our agenda. It is possible, but far from trivial.
We already have some ideas how to do that, but it will still take a while.

Our latest release 0.6.0 contains experimental support for snapshots.

api_tx:get_system_snapshot/0 exposes this to the user. Note that the whole 
snapshot needs to fit in memory though.
