Backup your MSYQL or MariaDB easily

It's very important to backup your database periodically and exist a very simple command called mysqldump that you can use to create a backup in a sql file as follows:

mysqldump -u userName -p databaseName > outputFileName.sql
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

After that a command will prompt for the password of the database user.

You have created a backup of your DB. You can create a cronjob to backup your database daily, weekly, etc.
