Backup and restore

TimescaleDB takes advantage of the reliable backup and restore functionality provided by PostgreSQL. There are a few different mechanisms you can use to backup your TimescaleDB database:

• Logical backups with the timescaledb-backup tool, or with pg_dump and pg_restore.
• Physical backups with pg_basebackup or another tool.
• Ongoing physical backups using write-ahead log (WAL) archiving.
