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 using embedding vectors, Text-to-SQL query capabilities, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Participants will learn how to install PgVector and PgAI, generate and load vector embeddings, establish vector indexes, implement semantic search and RAG workflows, and build Text-to-SQL applications using LangChain with Python or JavaScript. Through demonstrations and practical exercises, the core concepts and essential skills are reinforced.

This practical course concentrates on the hands-on elements of performance tuning within PostgreSQL. Participants will acquire the skills to analyse query execution, refine indexing strategies, tweak memory and system parameters, and effectively monitor workloads. Through real-world scenarios and live exercises, attendees will discover how to detect and resolve bottlenecks at both the database and system levels.

Mastering the management and development of PostgreSQL databases demands extensive expertise in performance tuning, database replication, and connection pooling. This curriculum explores server administration, core SQL concepts, client-side interfaces, server-side scripting, and the inner workings of the database. Through practical, hands-on exercises, database administrators and developers will gain the skills necessary to optimize query performance, handle backup procedures, set up monitoring systems, and design resilient, production-ready configurations for enterprise-level PostgreSQL deployments.

This training program 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, design principles, and strategies for executing database backups and recovery.

This course is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to master the tools and methodologies for executing backups, ensuring high availability, and securing databases within PostgreSQL.
Participants will also gain the skills to identify slow queries, oversee database performance, and optimize PostgreSQL settings for maximum efficiency.

Deploying PostgreSQL with zero downtime requires mastery of streaming replication and automated failover mechanisms. This course provides comprehensive coverage of synchronous and asynchronous replication, cascaded replication, transaction log archiving, base backups, and the monitoring of streaming configurations. You will learn how to deploy pgpool-II to establish connection pooling, automate high availability, and ensure production-grade reliability for enterprise databases supporting high-traffic business applications.
