01 · Learn

What you will learn

Restore an isolated PostgreSQL service to a chosen point before a seeded data error and prove the result.

  • Choose a precise recovery target
  • Prepare the complete recovery chain
  • Validate the restored service before cutover

02 · Use it

Why this matters

Point-in-time recovery succeeds only when the target, backup chain, WAL, and acceptance checks are precise.

03 · Practise

What you will do

Read each short section, answer a quick understanding check, then use real SQL to solve a guided task in your own temporary database.

04 · Prove it

How you will finish

Pass the SQL lab and the module assessment. Your result is saved to your signed-in account, and a module certificate is created if you pass.
