I'm both excited and a bit nervous. I loved the topic when I submitted it, but now comes the real challenge: writing a talk that actually lives up to it 😅

It’s World Backup Day!
At Data Egret, we help teams design backup solutions they can trust — because a backup is only useful if you can restore it.
And that's a sneak peek at the next @pgBackRest release 🤫
Using pgBackRest? Handling timelines correctly during recovery is key! Check out this new post by @pgstef where he dives into timeline issues and how to solve them... and if you’re not using pgBackRest—why not?! 😜 dataegret.com/2025/02/pgback…
