MongoDB Percona Backup for MongoDB
1

We are excited to announce the release of PBM 2.14.0! This update brings significant performance boosts for Minio-compatible remote storage, smoother encryption workflows, and a key safety update for restore operations.

:sun: Release Highlights

  • Faster S3 Uploads: Leveraging the MinIO SDK, PBM now supports concurrent streaming parts. This significantly improves throughput and efficiency when uploading large backup files to S3-compatible storage.

  • Interactive Restore Safety: To prevent accidental data loss, pbm restore now requires interactive confirmation.

    :warning: BREAKING CHANGE: Automation scripts must now use the -y or --yes flag to bypass this prompt.

  • Enhanced Encryption Support: PBM now automatically captures the master encryption key identifier for databases using external KMS providers (Vault/KMIP), making restores seamless without manual key tracking.

  • Reliable Physical Restores: Improvements to PITR ensure oplog entries are applied across all replica set nodes, maintaining data consistency.

:old_key: Key Improvements & Fixes

  • PBM-1598: New backup.timeouts.balancerStop setting to prevent operations from hanging during long chunk migrations.

  • PBM-1703: Squashed redundant 404 error logs in S3 storage for cleaner logging.

  • PBM-1345/1472: Fixed critical bugs related to PITR slicer failures and bucket path formatting.
