You might consider this Open Source tool, matiri, https://github.com/AAFC-MBB/matiri which is a concurrent mysql backup script with metadata in Sqlite3. Features:

• Multi-Server: Multiple MySQL servers are supported whether they are co-located on the same or separate physical servers.
• Parallel: Each database on the server to be backed up is done separately, in parallel (concurrency settable: default: 3)
• Compressed: Each database backup compressed
• Checksummed: SHA256 of each compressed backup file stored and the archive of all files
• Archived: All database backups tar'ed together into single file
• Recorded: Backup information stored in Sqlite3 database
