@@ -13,11 +13,12 @@ Primary PgBackRest features:
- In-stream compression/decompression
- Archiving and retrieval of logs for replicas/restores built in
- Async archiving for very busy systems (including space limits)
- Backup directories are consistent Postgres clusters (when hardlinks are on and compression is off)
- Backup directories are consistent PostgreSQL clusters (when hardlinks are on and compression is off)
- Tablespace support
- Restore delta option
- Restore using timestamp/size or checksum
- Restore remapping base/tablespaces
- Support for PostgreSQL >= 8.3
Instead of relying on traditional backup tools like tar and rsync, PgBackRest implements all backup features internally and uses a custom protocol for communicating with remote systems. Removing reliance on tar and rsync allows for better solutions to database-specific backup issues. The custom remote protocol limits the types of connections that are required to perform a backup which increases security.
