I am using pgbackrest. I used to use pg_rman, being well acquainted with
rman backup tool belonging to another database system, but pg_rman was
removing WAL archives before they were delivered to replica. I have
replication slots from the OLTP database to the DW database with
partitions, hash and bloom indexes and massive amount of processors, for
parallel query. I need the replication to work. In addition to that,
pgbackrest can employ parallelism while pg_rman cannot do that. I find
pgbackrest by far the best Postgres backup system.
