Exporting Data min read


Info

If you are running SingleStore Managed Service, use the admin endpoint to run the commands discussed in this topic.

This topic describes how to export data from SingleStore DB databases using mysqldump, which you can use because SingleStore DB supports the same query-level inputs and outputs as MySQL. mysqldump creates a .sql file containing the queries necessary to recreate a database. You can run the output of mysqldump against an instance of SingleStore DB or MySQL, so you can use this strategy to move data between the two.

Find the mysqldump reference page here.

$ mysqldump -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -P 3306 --all-databases > full_backup.sql
