Dynamic Database Dumping

Summary: Study of online dump creation for live databases, with methods that snapshot the beginning, end, or middle of updates. Analyzes time/storage tradeoffs; central metric is the copy/update rate; single-method schemes need >1, while a hybrid lowers it to >0.5. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
