### 🔌 **Connection types**
|

|

Databasus works seamlessly with both self-hosted PostgreSQL and cloud-managed databases:
|
||||
- **Remote** — Databasus connects directly to the database over the network (recommended in read-only mode). No agent or additional software required. Works with cloud-managed and self-hosted databases
|
||||
- **Agent** — A lightweight Databasus agent (written in Go) runs alongside the database. The agent streams backups directly to Databasus, so the database never needs to be exposed publicly. Supports host-installed databases and Docker containers
|
||||
|
||||
- **Cloud support**: AWS RDS, Google Cloud SQL, Azure Database for PostgreSQL
|
||||
- **Self-hosted**: Any PostgreSQL instance you manage yourself
|
||||
- **Why no PITR support?**: Cloud providers already offer native PITR, and external PITR backups cannot be restored to managed cloud databases — making them impractical for cloud-hosted PostgreSQL
|
||||
- **Practical granularity**: Hourly and daily backups are sufficient for 99% of projects without the operational complexity of WAL archiving
|
||||
### 📦 **Backup types**
|
||||
|
||||
- **Logical** — Native dump of the database in its engine-specific binary format. Compressed and streamed directly to storage with no intermediate files
|
||||
- **Physical** — File-level copy of the entire database cluster. Faster backup and restore for large datasets compared to logical dumps (requires agent)
|
||||
- **Incremental** — Physical base backup combined with continuous WAL segment archiving. Enables Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) — restore to any second between backups. Designed for disaster recovery and near-zero data loss requirements (requires agent)
