we only have the capability to back up the entire database or run some sort
of replication. For whatever reason there seems to be a need to make
incremental backups and recovery to some arbitrary defined timestamp.
Other databases have this capability so I presume a solution is possible.
As far as I can tell only two questions remain. Should IB also offer this
feature? If so how should it be implemented.
