Implementing High Availability in PostgreSQL Training Course

The course covers the fundamentals of PostgreSQL server extensions and libraries used to integrate AI techniques into database systems, including: similarity/semantic search based on embedding vectors, Text-to-SQL querying, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Students will learn how to install PgVector and PgAI, generate and load vector embeddings, create vector indexes, implement semantic search and RAG, develop Text-to-SQL applications using LangChain with Python/JavaScript. Demonstrations and hands-on practice reinforce the core concepts and practical skills.

This hands-on course focuses on the practical aspects of performance tuning in PostgreSQL. Participants will learn to analyse query execution, optimise indexing, adjust memory and system parameters, and monitor workloads effectively. Real-world scenarios and live exercises demonstrate how to identify and resolve bottlenecks at both the database and system levels.

This course provides the essential knowledge required to install, configure, and manage PostgreSQL databases effectively. Participants will learn how to handle user security, perform backups and restores, manage logs, and tune basic parameters. Through practical exercises, learners will perform real-world administration tasks and prepare for advanced topics such as performance and replication.

In this instructor-led, live training in China (onsite or remote), participants will learn the general and advanced aspects of PostgreSQL, including administration, performance turning, advanced development, and replication as they step through a series of hands-on, live-lab exercises involving setup, configuration, testing, deployment and troubleshooting.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Use advanced administration techniques to configure and manage a PostgreSQL server.
• Optimize the database and queries for maximum performance.
• Replicate and scale a PostgreSQL server.

This course provides in-depth coverage of replication, high availability, and cluster management in PostgreSQL. Participants will build and manage multi-node environments, configure failover automation, and explore load balancing and connection pooling solutions. The course includes live replication labs and recovery simulations.

This instructor-led, live training in China (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level developers and administrators who wish to leverage the latest features and improvements in PostgreSQL 16.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the architecture and components of PostgreSQL 16.
• Utilize advanced SQL features and PostgreSQL extensions.
• Implement security best practices and access controls.
• Perform database administration tasks, including backup, recovery, and monitoring.
• Optimize database performance through tuning and indexing strategies.
• Utilize PostgreSQL's built-in tools for high availability and replication.
• Integrate PostgreSQL with modern application development frameworks.
