  • Engineering

September 27, 2024by Michael Mo

Milvus is an open-source, high-performance, and highly scalable vector database that can store, index, and search billion-scale unstructured data through high-dimensional vector embeddings. It is perfect for building modern AI applications such as retrieval augmented generation (RAG), semantic search, multimodal search, and recommendation systems. Milvus runs efficiently across various environments, from laptops to large-scale distributed systems. It is available as open-source software and a cloud service.

Milvus Backup is a tool for backing up and restoring Milvus data. It provides both CLI and API to accommodate different application scenarios. This guide will walk you through the process of using Milvus Backup, ensuring that you can confidently handle your backup needs.

Preparation

Before starting the backup or restore process, you need to set up your environment:

1. Download the latest binary from the Milvus-backup repository releases. Select the appropriate version for your operating system:

  • For Linux: milvus-backup_Linux_arm64.tar.gz or milvus-backup_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz

2. Download the configuration file from GitHub.

3. Extract the tar file to your preferred directory and place the backup.yaml in the configs/ directory within the same extracted folder. Ensure your directory structure appears as follows:

├── configs

Backup/Restore Use Cases

There are several use cases in which the milvus-backup tool can be applied effectively, depending on your specific needs and configurations:

  1. Within a Single Milvus Instance: Copy a collection to a new one within the same Milvus service.

  2. Between Milvus Instances in a Single S3 with One Bucket: Transfer a collection between Milvus instances with different root paths but using the same S3 bucket.

  3. Between Milvus Instances Across Different S3 Buckets: Transfer a collection between different S3 buckets within the same S3 service.

  4. Across Different S3 Services: Copy a collection between Milvus instances that are using different S3 services.

Let’s explore each use case in details.

Use Case 1: Backup and Restore Within One Milvus Instance

Backup and restore a collection within the same Milvus instance. Assume a collection named “coll” is backed up and restored as “coll_bak” using the same S3 bucket.

Configuration:

  • Milvus uses the bucket_A for storage.

  • MinIO Configuration:

minio:
 address: localhost # Address of MinIO/S3
 port: 9000 # Port of MinIO/S3
 accessKeyID: minioadmin # accessKeyID of MinIO/S3
 secretAccessKey: minioadmin # MinIO/S3 encryption string
 useSSL: false # Access to MinIO/S3 with SSL
 ssl:
   tlsCACert: /path/to/public.crt # path to your CACert file, ignore when it is empty
 bucketName: bucket_A # Bucket name in MinIO/S3
 rootPath: files # The root path where the message is stored in MinIO/S3

Backup Workflow

1. Configure backup.yaml to point Milvus and MinIO to the correct locations.

# Related configuration of minio, which is responsible for data persistence for Milvus.
minio:
 # cloudProvider: "minio" # deprecated use storageType instead
 storageType: "minio" # support storage type: local, minio, s3, aws, gcp, ali(aliyun), azure, tc(tencent)
 address: localhost # Address of MinIO/S3
 port: 9000   # Port of MinIO/S3
 accessKeyID: minioadmin  # accessKeyID of MinIO/S3
 secretAccessKey: minioadmin # MinIO/S3 encryption string
 useSSL: false # Access to MinIO/S3 with SSL
 useIAM: false
 iamEndpoint: ""
 bucketName: "bucket_A" # Milvus Bucket name in MinIO/S3, make it the same as your milvus instance
 rootPath: "files" # Milvus storage root path in MinIO/S3, make it the same as your milvus instance

 # only for azure
 backupAccessKeyID: minioadmin  # accessKeyID of MinIO/S3
 backupSecretAccessKey: minioadmin # MinIO/S3 encryption string
  backupBucketName: "bucket_A" # Bucket name to store backup data. Backup data will store to backupBucketName/backupRootPath
 backupRootPath: "backup" # Rootpath to store backup data. Backup data will store to backupBucketName/backupRootPath

2. Create a backup using the command.

./milvus-backup create -c coll -n my_backup

This command places the backup in bucket_A/backup/my_backup.

3. Restore the backup to a new collection.

./milvus-backup restore -c coll -n my_backup -s _bak

This restores “coll” as “coll_bak” within the same Milvus instance.

Use Case 2: Backup and Restore Between Two Milvus Instances Sharing One S3 Bucket

Back up a collection from one Milvus instance and restore it to another using the same S3 bucket but with different root paths. Assuming there is a collection named “coll” in the milvus_A, we back up and restore it to a new collection named “coll_bak” to milvus_B. The two Milvus instances share the same bucket “bucket_A” as storage, but they have different root paths.

Configuration

  • Milvus A uses files_A as the root path.

  • Milvus B uses files_B as the root path.

  • MinIO Configuration for Milvus A:

minio:
 address: localhost # Address of MinIO/S3
 port: 9000 # Port of MinIO/S3
 accessKeyID: minioadmin # accessKeyID of MinIO/S3
 secretAccessKey: minioadmin # MinIO/S3 encryption string
 useSSL: false # Access to MinIO/S3 with SSL
 ssl:
   tlsCACert: /path/to/public.crt # path to your CACert file, ignore when it is empty
 bucketName: bucket_A # Bucket name in MinIO/S3
 rootPath: files_A # The root path where the message is stored in MinIO/S3
  • MinIO Configuration for Milvus B:
minio:
 address: localhost # Address of MinIO/S3
 port: 9000 # Port of MinIO/S3
 accessKeyID: minioadmin # accessKeyID of MinIO/S3
 secretAccessKey: minioadmin # MinIO/S3 encryption string
 useSSL: false # Access to MinIO/S3 with SSL
 ssl:
   tlsCACert: /path/to/public.crt # path to your CACert file, ignore when it is empty
 bucketName: bucket_A # Bucket name in MinIO/S3
 rootPath: files_B # The root path where the message is stored in MinIO/S3
