This course is designed to take you from beginner to advanced level with a complete hands-on approach. Whether you are a fresher, developer, or an experienced DBA transitioning from Oracle, MySQL, or SQL Server, this course will give you the practical skills required to manage PostgreSQL databases in real-world environments. In this course, you will start with PostgreSQL installation using multiple methods such as Source, RPM, Yum, and GUI. You will then dive deep into PostgreSQL architecture, including memory management, background processes, and WAL (Write-Ahead Logging).
You will learn how to manage databases, schemas, users, and permissions, along with implementing security using authentication, authorization, and row-level security. One of the most important parts of this course is Backup and Recovery. You will learn both logical and physical backup methods using tools like pg_dump, pg_dumpall, and pg_basebackup, along with real-time recovery scenarios. You will also learn how to configure streaming replication to ensure high availability and minimal downtime in production environments.
