alt Hacker NewsWow, this is pretty surprising, I was under the impression that this is the leading PG backup/recovery tool.
Anybody know how WAL-G and Barman compare?

We've been happy with WAL-E and now WAL-G (successor). The streaming PITR nature of these won over pgbackrest when we did the analysis ~9 years ago.

I dunno how they compare, but we have been using barman for a long time very happily. We test our backups every night, by restoring from barman into a _nightly DB. which we then give out to users as a training/testing spot, so that we know when it breaks. It hasn't broken in many years now. <3
