Hello all,
I have a pretty huge Postgres DB, about 1,3 to 1,5 Terra. What do you guys recommend on RAID Levels for this Database. Which does Postgres recommend, and with which do Postgres run very good or in the best way?
What Backup Strategy do you think would be the best. Dump the DB once a week or work with the WAL`s? For your info, the data which is feeded to the database is available and could be feeded again but it would maybe take a couple of days. So what would be a solution to bring up the huge DB in about one day after a crash. This would be the target.
Thanks for a feedback and Cheers Thomas
