I've never been a huge fan of the "snapshot and pray" school of backups. This tool does it right and supports S3 and Azure storage (equivalent to S3).

Also: Azure SQL is $15/month and includes restoration of the database to any point in time in the last 14 days. I LOVE Postgres but finally gave into this value proposition.
