Sorry, this is a newsgroup for Microsoft SQL Server. You can't expect 
people here to know what mysqldump is. I have a vague recollection that
is actually a list of INSERT statements. A backup that you take with 
the BACKUP statement in SQL Server is indeed a binary file. 

Since it is SQL Server that writes the backup, the backup must be written 
to a destination where SQL Server has write access, either local disk
or a file share. But it is a good idea to copy the backup elsewhere,
once you have taken it.

Yes, you can can also generate INSERT statemnents, but such a dump may not
be transactionally consistent. This is why you want a real backup.
