Description

PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source object-relational database management system that emphasizes extensibility, data integrity, and high performance. Its versatility and robust feature set make it an ideal choice for developers working on projects of all sizes, from small-scale applications to enterprise-level systems. By learning PostgreSQL, developers can tap into its advanced capabilities, such as full-text search, spatial data support, and customizable data types, allowing them to create efficient and scalable solutions tailored to their unique needs.
PostgreSQL for Database Developers is a three-day hands-on course that explores the fundamentals of database management, covering everything from installation and management to advanced SQL functions. Designed for beginners and enthusiasts alike, this course will equip you with the knowledge and skills required to effectively harness the power of PostgreSQL in today's data-driven landscape.
Throughout the course you'll be immersed in a variety of essential topics, such as understanding data types, creating and managing indexes, working with array values, and optimizing queries for improved performance. You'll gain valuable hands-on experience with real-world exercises, including the use of the psql client, writing triggers and stored procedures with PL/pgSQL, and exploring advanced SQL functions like Common Table Expressions (CTE), Window Functions, and Recursive Queries. You'll exit this course with a solid foundation in PostgreSQL, enabling you to confidently navigate and manage your databases with ease and efficiency.
