I wish someone would do the advanced Postgres version of the standard RDBMS "library" example as a book, going beyond just joins and simple window functions to arrays, json, notifications etc.
- monksy 11y agoI would suggest reading the High Perofrmance Postgresql book. It's one of the rare good PacktPub books: https://www.packtpub.com/big-data-and-business-intelligence/postgresql-90-high-performance https://www.packtpub.com/big-data-and-business-intelligence/...
- craigkerstiens 11y agoGreg Smith, the author is a former colleague and friend. His book on the performance side is definitely one of the better ones out there, but it's a few years old now and definitely more about tuning disks and storage more so than advanced usage. Sadly, I don't have a better one to recommend for the advanced user.
- monksy 11y agoCan you tell him that I really enjoyed the book!
- edwinnathaniel 11y agoDefinitely there's a market for postgresql books. Specifically, books with laddering type of learning experience (e.g.: beginner, intermediate, administration, developer, etc).
- ChristianGeek 11y agoIt's also only $5 at the moment.
