Barman

Backup and Disaster Recovery Manager for PostgreSQL

Discover how Barman and 2ndQuadrant can help you secure your business critical PostgreSQL databases.

Barman allows your company to implement disaster recovery solutions for PostgreSQL databases with high business continuity requirements. Barman is one of the most popular backup tools available for PostgreSQL.

Why Barman?

One in two companies has a database disaster recovery plan in place. Among them, 50% have implemented it only after experiencing a severe data loss or down-time.

Barman allows you to recover database to a point in time using PostgreSQL’s extremely robust Point In Time Recovery (PITR) technology.

Recover your database to a point in time

Barman relies on PostgreSQL’s extremely robust and reliable Point In Time Recovery technology.

Barman allows you to remotely manage multiple servers from one place for backup and recovery phases.

Control several servers from one place

Barman allows you to remotely manage the backup and recovery phases of multiple servers from the same location.

Manage a catalogue of backups

One of the best features of Barman is the backup catalog, which allows you to list, keep, delete, archive, and recover several full backups under the same hood.

What Our Clients Say

“2ndQuadrant‘s friendly consultant, Andreas Kretschmer delivered an extremely good job. Within only one week, he helped us migrate our four historically grown PostgreSQL servers, differing in respect to Linux platforms, PostgreSQL installation sources, and extensions, to a new, consolidated server landscape, and set up a centralised backup scheme based on Barman. He acted very flexibly according to the ever-changing daily work in our scientific computing department, and had competent answers to any questions that would arise.”
