- techdragon 12y agoYes. And so good that the tools I use to deal with PITR are actually just wrappers over those 2 commands. But how you orchestrate the recovery process, test the recovery process, centralise your backup files for faster tar/upload to offsite storage. All these things are "not simple" when all you have is the Postgres docs. Postgres is more than just a database/database engine. Its a database ecosystem.
