Prairie Postgres Second Developers’ Summit and Why You Should Participate If you are a software engineer who use Postgres, and if you are frustrated with bloated tables, “autovacuum blocking your processes,” partitioned tables being slow, indexes not used, CPU being close to 100% most times, or your system running out of memory, chances are there are some easy fixes that will make your life better and your satisfaction with Postgres might reach the next level:).

In my current position as Database Architect at DRW, I talk with end users more than I ever did in my life. Our end users are application developers who look at PostgreSQL from a very utilitarian perspective. Trust me, they do not care whether Postgres is the most advanced DBMS or not.

postgres is more than a database.

it can handle everything from advanced SQL patterns to full-text search and thoughtful data modeling.

partnering with @supabase.com, we've put together a free ebook featuring chapters from denis magda's and @vyruss.org's books.

Suresh Kumar Bandaru
Student at BTH | Enthusiast in Cloud Computing and Artificial Inte...

I’m happy to share that I’ve completed the video course 📺 "PostgreSQL Mistakes and How to Avoid Them", which lasts 6 hours and 4 minutes. 📚 by Jimmy Angelakos published by Manning Publications Co. and available on O'Reilly platform. ✨

A huge thank you to the author for such an insightful resource! I thoroughly enjoyed the 11 chapters 📖. This is an excellent book that provides numerous examples and I learned how to avoid and diagnose database configuration and operation issues, fix a poorly designed database, and maximize PostgreSQL performance. It also includes causes of errors with associated code examples for the psycopg (Python DB API).

In particular, the resources in Appendix A, Appendix B, and the GitHub repository (https://lnkd.in/g-VafvfH) are extremely helpful for creating the Frogge Emporium database from scratch.

Additionally, the author also provided a lot of dynamic customer test data dumps to help explore the various examples presented in the textbook.

(Note: The image also contains a screenshot at the bottom showing the O'Reilly "Your History" page with the course "PostgreSQL Mistakes and How to Avoid Them, Video Edition" marked as 100% Progress).
