Is BR currently the best tool for backing up clusters and data in TiDB 4.0? Does BR require each node to mount a directory, and can OBS be used for mounting?

The quality of a tool should be judged based on actual needs, just choose the appropriate one. Both dumpling and br can be used in version 4.0; dumpling is used for logical backups, and br is used for physical backups. You can check the official documentation for their differences.

What exactly is OBS, some cloud platform’s S3 object storage?
