Christoph Berg - UNDELETE data FROM table; (PGConf.EU 2024)

Conference: PGConf.EU

Year: 2024

PostgreSQL is very good at keeping your data safe. But unfortunately, that also holds the other way round: something that has been deleted will stay deleted. In this talk, we look at practical options to UNdelete data from tables. Ingredients are backups, transaction IDs, pg_dirtyread and full page inserts. From the maintainer of pg_dirtyread.
