WAL-G team is happy to announce the release of WAL-G 3.0.3
WAL-G is a tool for archival database restoration for PostgreSQL, GreenplumDB, MySQL/MariaDB, MongoDB, etcd and several other databases.
Major feature of this release is full support for OrioleDB. WAL-G supported block-level incremental backups since v0.1.3, but it previously treated OrioleDB data as a collection of unknown files. Now WAL-G understands if OrioleDB is installed into cluster and makes efficient backup copies of OrioleDB data. Thanks to Supabase engineers for working on WAL-G.
Additionally, this release includes two new commands for Postgres: catchup-send and catchup-receive. These commands are useful when you need to bring a lagging replica up to date without pushing a new backup to the storage. In essence, they work like pg_rewind but in reverse. Perhaps we should rename them to pg_wind.
