Description
PostgreSQL has become one of the most widely adopted DBMSs in critical and cloud environments. Robust, scalable and open source, it nevertheless requires rigorous administration to get the most out of its performance.
This PostgreSQL training course guides you through the implementation, daily administration and security of a PostgreSQL server. Through practical workshops, you will learn how to deploy a server, structure data, manage users, optimise queries and ensure high availability.
Format
Remote (recorded sessions).
GOOD TO KNOW
This training course includes numerous exercises (60% practical) to enhance learning. Even if you are the only one registered, the session will still take place (except in cases of force majeure). A preliminary interview is held between the participant and/or a company representative in order to fully assess the participant’s profile (level, needs, professional context, challenges, etc.).
Assessment : during the training course, the trainer assesses the participants’ progress through multiple-choice questions, role-playing exercises and practical work. Participants receive a certificate of completion at the end of the training course.
