Brand Details

Type: Product

Description: pgBackRest is a reliable and simple-to-configure backup and restore system for PostgreSQL databases. It is designed to scale to very large databases and workloads. Instead of relying on traditional backup tools like tar and rsync, pgBackRest implements all backup features internally and uses a custom protocol to communicate with remote systems. This approach allows for better solutions to database-specific backup challenges and provides more flexibility, while increasing security.
