About

Ansible role ansible-wal-g installs wal-g binary from github releases.

WAL-G is an archival restoration tool for Postgres (beta for MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis)

WAL-G is the successor of WAL-E with a number of key differences. WAL-G uses LZ4, LZMA, or Brotli compression,
multiple processors, and non-exclusive base backups for Postgres.\
