Thread: restoring a table after an online backup
Hello,
I was just wondering: Is it possible to restore a specific table from an online backup?
Or is it only possible if we first restore the backup, replay all the logs, and then take the table files?
wkr,

The online backups are file system level backups therefore single table restoration is not possible however possible to restore the specific table from the logical backups (pg_dump) if you have. In case of online backups, it's best practice to restore the online backup on a test system and perform PITR. After successful restoration, take the dump of the specific table and restore it on the production.
