Point-in-time recovery (PITR) is a robust feature in PostgreSQL that has become even more efficient and user-friendly with the advent of PostgreSQL. It enables administrators to restore a PostgreSQL database to a specific moment in the past. This is particularly useful if you manage disaster recovery for a large-scale system with a large transaction load.
This blog will explore PITR and equip you with knowledge about potential pitfalls and their solutions, ensuring a smooth and successful implementation. We’ll also share its key benefits and detail a step-by-step implementation of PostgreSQL.
