Re: [keycloak-dev] Using export and import for backup and restore
Export/import using JSON has a few significant disadvantages:
* It's very very slow
* It can not provide a consistent snapshot unless all writes are stopped
during the export
With that regards I very much doubt it would be the ideal solution.
One question though can't backup be performed at the DB level, and then be
a requirement on the DB operator rather than the Keycloak operator?

Hey,
In the next few days we'll be looking into implementing backup and restore
functionality for the Keycloak Operator. One of the options we are
considering, is using an export/import functionality. An Operator could
export all realms into a JSON file and put it somewhere in a Persistent
Volume.
I was wondering, what do you think about this approach? Are there any
guarantees around export/import functionality (especially with the regards
to its format)? Also, would it work for exporting JSON file from Keycloak
and importing it to RHSSO?
Thanks,
Sebastian
