AFAIC, PostgreSQL uses partitoned database files to store data. Thus,
it's far from MS Access' concept. (Furthermore, both method have its
own pros and cons.) But, in the related documentation (which I pasted
above), you'll see how easy it is to backup/restore a PostgreSQL
database/table/object using supplied utilities.
