Backing up Oracle databases
The Oracle plugin is designed to simplify the backup and restore procedures of your Oracledatabase instance(s). Oracle Database Administrators can take advantage of the option touse RMAN commands in order to make backing up Oracle databases even easier and moreconvenient. Besides ease and speed, the Oracle Plugin provides important features includingrestoring your database(s) to any point in time or being able to filter objects during backupor restore; all of them being available using two different backup techniques: “Dump” andPoint In Time Recovery (PITR) through its tight integration with Oracle Recovery Manager(RMAN).The plugin also implements the RMAN API sbt that eliminates the need to write files tolocal disks first. In both “Dump” and RMAN modes, the plugin will back up all essentialinformation, which is an Oracle DBA best practice. It is quite common to combine both“Dump” and RMAN PITR techniques to back up the same cluster.
Improving incremental and differential backup
The Bacula Systems Oracle plugin uses many of the features of RMAN, including its changetracking feature to improve backup performance by recording changed blocks in each datafile in a change tracking file. If the change tracking feature is enabled, RMAN uses thechange tracking file to identify changed blocks for incremental backup, thus avoiding theneed to scan every block in the data file.
Restoring data
As shown on the figures below, the Oracle plugin allows you to restore your databases eitherwith RMAN or using Dump.
Supported platforms
This plugin is available on Linux platforms 32/64 bits supported by Oracle and supportsOracle database 10.x, 11.x.

Backing up PostgreSQL databases
The PostgreSQL plugin is designed to simplify the backup and restore procedures of yourPostgreSQL cluster(s); the backup administrator does not need to know the internals ofPostgreSQL backup techniques or write complex scripts. The plugin automatically takes careof backing up essential information such as configuration, user definitions and tablespaces.The PostgreSQL plugin supports both “Dump” and Point In Time Recovery (PITR) backuptechniques.Using Bacula Systems’ unique Late Data Inclusion (LDI) technology, this plugin effectivelycaptures data up to the point of finishing the backup, therefore minimising the risk of dataloss.
