This instructor-led live training in Kenya (available online or onsite) is intended for database administrators and cloud architects aiming to migrate Oracle databases to Azure SQL or PostgreSQL.

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

• Compare Azure SQL with PostgreSQL to identify the database that best supports business objectives and needs.
• Prepare databases for the migration of definitions, data, and procedures from Oracle to AzureSQL or PostgreSQL.
• Carry out post-migration steps such as testing, optimizing, updating, and maintaining the new database.

This course explores the core principles of PostgreSQL server extensions and libraries designed to embed artificial intelligence capabilities into database architectures. Key topics include similarity and semantic search utilizing embedding vectors, Text-to-SQL query generation, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Participants will acquire the skills to install PgVector and PgAI, create and load vector embeddings, establish vector indexes, execute semantic search and RAG workflows, and build Text-to-SQL applications using LangChain with Python or JavaScript. Through practical demonstrations and hands-on exercises, the essential concepts and technical competencies are reinforced.

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.

This course covers the administration and performance optimization of PostgreSQL databases. Participants will gain expertise in utilizing specialized PostgreSQL (also known as Postgres) modules, including replication, connection pooling, and full-text search capabilities.

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 targets Database Administrators and Architects seeking to master Streaming Replication within PostgreSQL. It explores how pgpool-II facilitates automatic failover mechanisms and enables the establishment of a highly available PostgreSQL Database Cluster.

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.

In this instructor-led live training Kenya (onsite or remote), participants will gain knowledge of the general and advanced aspects of PostgreSQL, including administration, performance tuning, advanced development, and replication. This is achieved through a series of hands-on live-lab exercises that cover setup, configuration, testing, deployment, and troubleshooting.
