Is there a good and free software to backup a mysql database?

I'm looking for a software or script to make a daily backup (automatic) of a mysql database. Any suggestions?

Right now my solution is to use Mysql workbench with mysql dump, but I have to do it manually开发者_如何学JAVA, so anything free and automatic would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The documentation details various backup types. But if you just want it automatically, make it a scheduled task or a cron job. That's what those services are for.
