This course explores the foundational aspects of PostgreSQL server extensions and libraries designed to incorporate artificial intelligence into database systems. Key topics include similarity and semantic search utilizing embedding vectors, Text-to-SQL query capabilities, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Participants will learn to install PgVector and PgAI, as well as generate and load vector embeddings, establish vector indexes, implement semantic search and RAG workflows, and develop Text-to-SQL applications using LangChain with Python or JavaScript. Through live demonstrations and hands-on exercises, the course reinforces core concepts and practical skills.

This practical course centres on the real-world aspects of performance tuning within PostgreSQL. Attendees will acquire skills in analysing query execution, optimising indexing strategies, configuring memory and system parameters, and effectively monitoring workloads. Through real-world scenarios and live exercises, participants will learn to identify and resolve bottlenecks at both the database and infrastructure levels.

Effectively managing and developing PostgreSQL databases demands a thorough understanding of performance tuning, data replication strategies, and connection pooling mechanisms. This comprehensive course addresses server administration, core SQL concepts, client connectivity options, server-side scripting capabilities, and the internal architecture of the database. Through practical, hands-on training, database administrators and developers will gain the skills necessary to optimize query performance, oversee backup procedures, establish effective monitoring systems, and construct resilient, enterprise-ready PostgreSQL environments.

This training is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to master PostgreSQL from the ground up.

Participants will gain comprehensive knowledge of PostgreSQL architecture, installation procedures, and design principles, along with techniques for performing database backups and recovery.

This course is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to master the tools and techniques required for implementing Backups, High Availability, and Database Security within PostgreSQL.
Participants will also gain the skills to identify slow queries, monitor database performance, and optimize PostgreSQL for enhanced speed and efficiency.

Ensuring zero-downtime PostgreSQL deployments requires expert knowledge of Streaming Replication and automated failover management. This course addresses synchronous and asynchronous replication, cascaded replication, transaction log archiving, base backups, and the monitoring of streaming configurations. You will learn to deploy pgpool-II for connection pooling, automated high availability setup, and production-grade database reliability, tailored for critical enterprise environments serving high-traffic business applications.

Designed for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to enhance PostgreSQL performance, this training guides you through logging slow workloads and identifying query bottlenecks. Additionally, it covers the critical parameters that must be adjusted to achieve optimal performance.
