Rust-native plugin for PostgreSQL 12-17. Full PITR (full + WAL incremental + differential), parallel multi-DB DUMP, VLDB split via COPY-range, physical and logical replication with slot capture, automated 6-phase restore with 5-second rollback. PG17 block-level incremental via pg_basebackup –incremental.
What it does
- Full PITR — Full + WAL-only incremental + differential. Recovery target by time/lsn/xid/name.
- VLDB split — Numeric-PK tables above the threshold are split into parallel range chunks.
- Replication-aware — Physical + logical slots in the manifest; CREATE SUBSCRIPTION DDL synthesized.
- Automated restore — 6 phases (stop → receive → config → start → monitor → cleanup) with mv-based rollback.
