[TCMUG] PostGIS backup strategies

[GrandNord]

Hi all.

I started a new job this month at East View. I'm pushing some fairly large raster data sets into PostGIS to back some WMS and WCS services.
An issue that one of my new colleagues brought forward is that PostGIS might require different backup strategies than a standard Postgres DB. Does anyone have any insights on the issue? Have you had success or failures with specific backup strategies with PostGIS?

As an aside, if anyone felt that this is a topic better discussed over brewed wheat, or fermented apple or grape juice, I would not be opposed to a meeting.
