A two Morning training event:

This rapid-fire training offers a structured, systematic walkthrough of all PostgreSQL GUC parameters, highlighting the most impactful “low-hanging-fruit” settings that can deliver immediate performance improvements. Rather than overwhelming attendees with exhaustive deep dives, the session focuses on surfacing what truly matters first—ensuring that no relevant parameter is overlooked while maintaining a fast, practical pace. Participants will gain a clear understanding of which configuration areas deserve the most attention, how these parameters interact with PostgreSQL’s internal architecture, and what considerations to keep in mind when tuning for real-world environments. Because the content assumes a working familiarity with PostgreSQL internals, the training is ideal for engineers who want a high-level but actionable overview of everything that can be optimized in PostgreSQL.
