This course explores the fundamentals of PostgreSQL server extensions and libraries designed to integrate artificial intelligence techniques into database systems. Key topics include similarity and semantic search using embedding vectors, Text-to-SQL querying, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Participants will learn to install PgVector and PgAI, generate and load vector embeddings, create vector indexes, implement semantic search and RAG capabilities, and develop Text-to-SQL applications utilizing LangChain with Python or JavaScript. Through demonstrations and practical exercises, the course reinforces core concepts and essential skills.

This practical course centres on the hands-on techniques for tuning PostgreSQL performance. Participants will gain skills in analyzing query execution, optimizing indexing strategies, configuring memory and system settings, and effectively monitoring workloads. Through real-world scenarios and live exercises, the course demonstrates how to pinpoint and resolve bottlenecks at both the database and system levels.

Effectively managing and developing PostgreSQL databases demands a profound understanding of performance optimization, database replication, and connection pooling. This course delves into server administration, SQL fundamentals, client interfaces, server-side programming, and database internals. Through practical, hands-on training, Database Administrators (DBAs) and developers will gain the skills to optimize query execution, manage backups, configure monitoring systems, and establish robust, production-ready configurations for enterprise-level PostgreSQL environments.

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

Participants will gain insights into PostgreSQL's architecture, installation procedures, database design principles, and best practices for backing up and recovering data.

This training program 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 insights into identifying slow queries, monitoring database performance, and fine-tuning PostgreSQL for optimal speed.

This course is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to enhance the performance of their PostgreSQL databases. Participants will learn how to capture slow-running workloads, identify potential bottlenecks within queries, and adjust critical configuration parameters to achieve optimal system performance.
