> I'm glad you like it so much as to cite it as an advantage. It was a big motivation for me moving away from a document DB. As a "weekend dev", I don't have time to configure complex, redundant backup systems. But my customers will be paying to display data on my site, and therefore I need to ensure I'm backing it up as often as possible. WAL-E to S3 was simple to configure, is cheap to run, and (most importantly!) easy to restore. I rm -rf'ed my postgres data folder after letting WAL-E run for two weeks on my dev box. Restored, restarted in recovery mode and I was back in action without any problems. (thanks for all your hard work!)
