Data loss occurs more often than people realize or are willing to admit. In fact, compromised data is not a question of if, but rather of when. At a minimum, loss of irreplaceable data results in lost sales and revenues, contract penalties, potential non-compliance with the law, decreased stock value, and even bankruptcy. Perhaps most important, lost costs diminish an enterprise’s ability to pursue strategic business initiatives. This presentation covers the following topics: - Why disaster recovery plans are so important - Which Postgres tools and services will be most effective for you - What success can look like for you - How to get started in a few simple steps This presentation is intended for Business and IT Decision-Makers closely involved in managing the Postgres development team. If you are planning to implement Postgres or have recently launched Postgres this topic will be very helpful to prioritizing the development of your disaster recovery plan.

But Don’t Take Our Word For It…
“In order to provide our clients with quality and in-time service delivery, it is
crucial for us that we ensure high availability and continuity for our
applications.
Our applications have a 99.97% high availability requirement. Continuing
to work with the community version of Postgres without the proper support
model was not an option. In addition to support, there are things EDB
Postgres offered that aren’t available in the community version, such as
monitoring, tooling and compatibility for Oracle.”

But Don’t Take Our Word For It…
“Quite literally, our database is our business. All Agri-Stats’ mission-
critical data storage, analysis, and reporting capabilities depend on it.
That’s why we can’t tolerate database crashes, failures, or downtime.
EDB provides us with stability and performance that IBM’s DB2 simply did
not. Now, we’re able to deliver to our clients the data and analysis critical to
their businesses.”
