Well, that depends on your configuration details. Is your DB located on
a SAN device or JBOD? If it's SAN, than it can do snapshots. All
enterprise backup utilities like NetBackup, TSM, Avamar or Commvault
support snapshots. They all can do full and incremental backups and they
can also do PITR. Your database is an enterprise sized database and
needs an enterprise level tool. If you want a freebie, pgbackrest is the
best thing no money can buy. Pgbackrest supports parallelism, full and
incremental backups.
