Configure Replication and Enable Point in Time Recovery for Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL GSP922

Overview
In this lab you will configure and test point-in-time recovery for a Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL instance.

Point-in-time recovery helps you recover an instance to a specific point in time. For example, if an error causes a loss of data, you can recover a database to its state before the error occurred.

A point-in-time recovery always creates a new instance; you cannot perform a point-in-time recovery to an existing instance. The new instance inherits the settings of the source instance.

Objectives
You will learn how to perform the following tasks:
– Enable point-in-time recovery on a Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL instance.
– Perform a point-in-time recovery.
– Confirm that the recovered database reflects an earlier point in time.
