Percona XtraBackup 8.0.26-18.0
On September 2, 2021, we released Percona XtraBackup 8.0.26-18.0. It enables MySQL backups without blocking user queries, making it ideal for companies with large data sets and mission-critical applications that cannot tolerate long periods of downtime. Along with some bug fixes, this release features some improvements, including xbcloud should retry on an error and utilize incremental backoff (Thanks to Baptiste Mille-Mathias for reporting this issue), and removal of the obsolete LOCKLESS binary log functionality since the performance_schema.log_status table is now used to get the log information on all the storages without locking them.
