Hi all,
Is there any way to make incremental backups in postgres-12?
It would helpful to be more explicit about what you are trying to achieve.
Do you want:
1) A continuous process or scheduled one?
2) Local or remote backups?
3) The backup as a standby?
Standby is not backup!!!!!
But we don't know what the OP is doing so it is best to ask.
Honestly, these are bizarre questions which no one in the Enterprise
world would ask in response to "Is there any way to make incremental
backups in Oracle, DB2, SQL Server?" since the answer is a simple "yes,
of course" (or maybe "yes, differential backups").
Except we have no way of knowing what the situation is. I prefer not to
assume a context.
You make it sound like incremental (and differential) backups are some
complicated thing that needs context. That's utter and complete rubbish in
every Enterprise RDBMS except Postgresql.
Something like "BACKUP DATABASE (DIFFERENTIAL) foo TO foo.bak;" should be a
fundamental feature of every RDBMS that claims to be enterprise class.
