PostgreSQL Advanced: Replication and High Availability (RepMgr, PgPool-II) Training Course

Unlock the power of AI integration in Postgres with this live, instructor-led training in France. Discover how to configure extensions, implement pgvector embeddings, and connect LLMs for instant insights. Gain hands-on experience optimizing queries and building intelligent systems in a dynamic live-lab environment.

This 21-hour instructor-led training in France enables data engineers and DBAs to integrate AI models into PostgreSQL. Participants will learn to deploy optimized architectures, implement vector search, and enforce strict governance, ensuring secure and high-performance enterprise-grade AI solutions.

This course explores the foundational aspects of PostgreSQL server extensions and libraries designed to embed artificial intelligence techniques within database environments. Key topics include similarity and semantic search utilizing embedding vectors, Text-to-SQL query capabilities, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Participants will master the installation of PgVector and PgAI, learn to generate and load vector embeddings, construct vector indexes, and implement semantic search and RAG solutions. Additionally, attendees will develop Text-to-SQL applications using LangChain with Python or JavaScript. Through live demonstrations and practical exercises, the core concepts and applicable skills are reinforced.

This course delves into the basics of PostgreSQL server extensions designed to embed AI techniques into database systems, specifically focusing on similarity and semantic search utilizing embedding vectors. Learners will master the process of installing PgVector, handling vector embeddings, creating vector indexes, and deploying semantic search functionalities. The curriculum reinforces key concepts and practical competencies through interactive demonstrations and hands-on sessions.

This practical course dives deep into the real-world application of performance tuning within PostgreSQL. It guides participants through analyzing query execution, refining index strategies, fine-tuning memory and system parameters, and implementing effective workload monitoring. Through real-world scenarios and live exercises, learners will gain the skills to pinpoint and resolve bottlenecks across both database and system levels.

This course equips learners with the core skills necessary to deploy, configure, and oversee PostgreSQL database environments with confidence. Attendees will gain proficiency in securing user access, executing backup and restoration procedures, overseeing logging activities, and optimizing fundamental settings. By engaging in hands-on practical tasks, students will tackle real-world administrative challenges while building a solid foundation for more advanced concepts, including performance optimization and replication.

In this instructor-led live training delivered in France (onsite or remote), participants will gain insights into the general and advanced aspects of PostgreSQL.
