Stash PostgreSQL Addon

Stash 0.9.0+ supports extending its functionality through addons. Stash PostgreSQL addon enables Stash to backup and restore PostgreSQL databases.

This guide will give you an overview of which PostgreSQL versions are supported and how the docs are organized.

Supported PostgreSQL Versions

Stash has the following addon versions for PostgreSQL:

• 10.14-v31
• 11.9-v31
• 12.4-v31
• 13.1-v28
• 14.0-v20
• 15.1-v12
• 16.1-v1
• 9.6.19-v31

Here, the addon follows M.M.P versioning scheme where M.M.P (Major.Minor.Patch) represents the respective database version.

Addon Version Compatibility

Any addon with matching major version with the database version should be able to take backup of that database. For example, PostgreSQL addon with version 12.x.x should be able take backup of any PostgreSQL of 12.x.x series. However, this might not be true for some versions. In that case, we will have separate addon for that version.

• How does it work? gives an overview of how backup and restore process for PostgreSQL database works in Stash.
