In this talk, I'll discuss the incremental backup feature which I developed for PostgreSQL 17. The talk will discuss how we determine what data has changed, and why the chosen approach was selected. It will then review in some detail how incremental backups can be taken and restored, and why things work as they do. It will briefly touch on use cases for the feature and possible future work in this area.
