Title: Introduction to PostgreSQL for the data professionalBook Description:
Adoption and use of PostgreSQL is growing all the time. From mom-and-pop shops to large enterprises, more data is being managed by PostgreSQL. In turn, this means that more data professionals need to learn PostgreSQL even when they have experience with other databases. While the documentation around PostgreSQL is detailed and technically rich, finding a simple, clear path to learning what it is, what it does, and how to use it can be challenging. This book seeks to help with that challenge.
We set about giving you all the basics of how to get started within PostgreSQL. From getting your first instance, or cluster, up and running, to backups, to server configurations, we cover all the basics. You'll learn about processing languages, monitoring, indexes and more. Every chapter provides fundamental knowledge and guidance so that you can more easily get started working with PostgreSQL. Getting started with PostgreSQL doesn't have to be a challenge and this book will help.
Abstract:
Join Ryan and Grant as they discuss their individual journeys into Postgres, their writing of the book, and how the book is designed to help Postgres converts.
