Configure an archive_command on the master to compress and push logs to cloud storage, and configure a hot standby on site to pull and decompress the logs. The wal-e tool may make things simpler pushing to cloud storage, or just follow the PostgreSQL documentation to archive the WAL files to a filesystem. If that isn't good enough, you can look at more esoteric approaches (eg. nightly plaintext dumps to a git repository, pushing changes to disk on site). -- Stuart Bishop <stuart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.stuartbishop.net/
