PostgreSQL server enables geo-redundant backups

Description

Azure PostgreSQL allows you to choose between locally redundant or geo-redundant backup storage in the General Purpose and Memory Optimized tiers. When the backups are stored in geo-redundant backup storage, they are not only stored within the region in which your server is hosted, but are also replicated to a paired data center. This provides better protection and ability to restore your server in a different region in the event of a disaster.

Code Example

{
 "resource "azurerm_postgresql_server" "example" {
  ...
+ geo_redundant_backup_enabled = true
}

",
}
