How does this compare to WAL-E?

- melor 10y agoBoth do mostly the same thing with some differences. The biggest difference currently could be that WAL-E uses the PostgreSQL "archive_command" to send incremental backups (WAL files) in complete 16 megabyte chunks, whereas PGHoard uses real-time streaming with "pg_receivexlog", making the data loss window much smaller in case of a disaster.
- willlll 10y agoYou can set archive_timeout to something like 1 minute to bound the window.
- oskari 10y agoPGHoard also supports Google Cloud which doesn't seem to be supported in WAL-E at the moment.
