---------------------------------------
nreich opened a new pull request #1109: GEODE-3799: Move backups towards a
pluggable architecture
URL: https://github.com/apache/geode/pull/1109
* This effort decouples the definition of files to be backed up
from the destination of the backup. It will allow for the
development of different, pluggable, strategies for conducting
backups, such as compressed archive files of backups or backup
to cloud providers.
* A new BackupDestination interface is provided and the existing
logic for saving a backup to the filesystem has been moved into
an implementation of this interface, FileSystemBackupDestination.
During a backup, all files are copied to a temporary directory
and added to a definition of the backup. This definition is then
used to send the files to their ultimate destination. In the
current case of moving the files to a specified location on the
filesystem, this is implemented by moving the files from the
temporary location to the target backup directory.

> The current logic merges the moving/copying of files with the determining of
> what to backup. To make it possible to store a backup in cloud storage or
> other locations, we need to separate these concerns, putting the variable,
> location-based logic, into a plugin architecture.
