Trusted Postgres Architect

TPA is an open source orchestration tool that uses Ansible to deploy Postgres clusters according to our best practices. These recommendations are as applicable to quick testbed setups as to production environments. We will see how TPA can deploy to bare metal, AWS and docker containers.

What can't pgBackRest do for you?

pgBackRest, the powerful backup and restore tool for PostgreSQL, has been widely embraced by the community for its robustness and efficiency.

However, every tool has its limitations, and pgBackRest is no exception.
One area that begs for further exploration is its archiving system, which plays a vital role in enabling Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR). During this session, we will embark on a journey to uncover the missing features in this area and delve into the innovative solutions provided to enhance PostgreSQL WAL archiving effectiveness.
