Hi ~~Na-iem Dollie,

 

Thanks  for your reply,

 

In SQL Server there is an option to take Full backup and Differential Backup 
for a particular database. 

 

Like that, we need to take the differential Backup in PostgreSQL. This is my 
primary need.

 

Thanks,

Karthick Ramu

Hi Karthick

 

I'm a little rusty on PG (it's been about a decade since I last worked 
intensely with it), but I seem to remember that restoring with indexes can be 
very slow. The faster approach is to restore without indexes, and then create 
the indexes once the data restore is complete.

 

My knowledge may be outdated, so best to check with others that have more 
recent knowledge. However, it's probably worth investigating in the meantime.

 

Okay, I just had a quick look at the documentation, and it seems there is an 
option to run multiple concurrent jobs for the time-consuming parts of a 
restore (which includes index creation):

 

-j number-of-jobs

 

see: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-pgrestore.html (or check the 
docs for whatever PG version you have)

 

Good luck!

Hi Team,                 

 

We have used PG_DUMP to take backup of particular database from the PostgreSQL 
Server. It takes too long to restore the databases , which has  Half Billion 
records (almost 8 Hour)

 

My primary need is to make the Differential and Incremental backup on the 
Windows Server. When I search there is a tool Barman and PG_BackRest is 
available. But that will be supported only for Linux based servers only

 

Please suggest me a tool to make differential backup

 

Thanks,
