Hello,

Is it possible to configure pgbackrest for a postgresql server pair using
physical replication on two different sites with limited bandwidth (i.e.
sufficient for data replication but not daily backups)? All tutorials and
blogs describe a setup with either a single pgbackrest repo or multiple
repos configured on the primary server. I am looking for a solution that
has a second pgbackrest server on a secondary site that receives backups
and WALs from the standby server in order to avoid most of the additional
network traffic for backups/WALs. Is such a setup possible with pgbackrest
or other PostgreSQL backups solutions?

Best regards,
Radu
