Обсуждение: I need testers for incremental backups (similar Oracle)
Hello all. I'm working on incremental backup based on tracking of memory pages (ptrack). Now project in beta stage. And I did not have many feedbacks for catch bugs. I think it is important project for postgres exploitation. This approach can really speed up incremental backup with small overhead. This project append patch to postgres core and add new features to pg_arman. Small HOWTO and all links I place here: https://gist.github.com/stalkerg/dda6fed9ca4bd7cc424ad439bac04303 I will be answered here and at github.

In the WAL can be any number of records that change only one page of memory. In addition recover from the WAL too long, because it should be "play" by Postgres. In my case pg_arman + ptrack it's almost as simple copy files. Thanks. -- Yury Zhuravlev Postgres Professional: http://www.postgrespro.com The Russian Postgres Company
