If you are made of money and in the UK, you can attend this course[0] which is all taught using Postgres, doesn't require being enrolled in the associated MSc, and will seriously up your game.

- throwaway049 10y agoIt looks like you can take this module for £1850. That's about the going rate and should pay for itself in increased productivity/earnings. (My employer recently paid a similar fee for me to take a far less impressive msc module at a uk uni)
- snaky 10y agoIf you are not made of money, you can thoroughly read (from A to Z, it's not a cookbook!) PostgreSQL official documentation, it's awesome.
- rch 10y agoI also like PostgreSQL 9.0 High Performance by Gregory Smith.
- snaky 10y agoTalking about books, I'd say PostgreSQL Server Programming is especially worth to look at, because extensibility is the very thing where PostgreSQL shines.
- fnord123 10y agoI had a street fighting knowledge of Postgres. I picked up "Postgres Up and Running" which filled in a lot of holes in my knowledge. It was surprisingly good for an O'Reilly book.
- netghost 10y agoI just want to second the postgres docs, they're excellent. They are complete, comprehensive, and well worth your time.
- Omnipresent 10y agoIs there anything similar available online?
- jbranchaud 10y agoThere are legit (free) Postgres screencasts at pgcasts.com
