Previously, we discussed how to perform a simple backup using pg_rman. As pg_rman can back up PostgreSQL at the physical file copy level, it is quite useful for daily database maintenance. Particularly, pg_rman supports incremental backup, which only backs up the changed data. In this blog, I will explain how incremental backup works in pg_rman.… Read More »Understanding Incremental Data Backup in pg_rman
We discussed a topic on how to create simple backups using pg_rman. In this blog post, we will demonstrate how to restore PostgreSQL using a backup generated by pg_rman. In continuation of the previous blog, let’s execute a simple query before simulating an error. Now, let’s insert some new records into the database. At this… Read More »Restore PostgreSQL with pg_rman
Introduction PostgreSQL, a powerful open-source relational database, is known for its robustness and extensibility. One critical aspect of database management is ensuring reliable backup and recovery processes. While PostgreSQL provides tools like pg_basebackup and WAL archiving for this purpose, there’s a powerful external tool called pg_rman that takes this process to the next level. In… Read More »A simple way to backup PostgreSQL with pg_rman
