Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL now automatically enables point-in-time recovery (PITR) in a separate, asynchronous operation after disaster recovery (DR) switchover and replica failover operations complete. Because PITR enablement no longer blocks switchover and replica failover, these operations complete faster, helping you reduce your recovery time.
