Who this book is for
This book is for anyone (and everyone) running PostgreSQL on a server. Your data is important, as losing it without proper backups can mean long nights, lost business, and in extreme cases, shutting down the company.
PostgreSQL DBAs are encouraged to use this resource for the advanced recipes.
Companies without a DBA may have a greater need, since the remaining system administrators and developers probably lack PostgreSQL expertise. If you are such a developer or system administrator, we highly recommend you to use the techniques we describe to prevent unnecessary risk. Who knows, you may even have a future as a PostgreSQL DBA!
