You’ll have to take additional steps to move those objects.
#POSTGRESQL CLIENT WINDOWS COMMAND KEYGEN#

These are the advantages and disadvantages I expect to see: Then we’ll compare the performance using \COPY. We’ll first move the data with pg_dump, with and without parallelism. Moving data from other database engines, like MySQLįor our first scenario, we’ll do a data migration between two PostgreSQL servers.Migrating data from Postgres to Postgres.Today, we’ll use \COPY to enable these three scenarios: You need to have the psql application to be able to use \COPY. You can even use both absolute and relative paths. The source file does not have to exist on the same machine as the Postgres instance if you use \COPY. \COPY runs COPY internally, but with expanded permissions and file access. The server based COPY command has limited file access and user permissions, and isn’t available for use on Azure Database for PostgreSQL.

Postgres's COPY comes in two separate variants, COPY and \COPY: COPY is server based, \COPY is client based.” - The PostgreSQL Wikiīoth versions of COPY move data from a file to a Postgres table. “ COPY is the Postgres method of data-loading. Today, we’re exploring three scenarios where you can consider using PostgreSQL’s COPY command. The method you pick depends on the scenario you want to enable. When you want to move data into your PostgreSQL database, there are a few options available like pg_dump and Azure Data Factory.
