PostgreSQL for Python Developers

In one intensive four-hour tutorial, we will cover everything that a Python developer needs to know to set up, maintain, and get best performance out of a PostgreSQL database:

• Installing PostgreSQL from source, or using standard packages.
• Basic PostgreSQL configuration for development and for deployment.
• Routine system monitoring and maintenance.
• Backup and recovery.
• Introduction to advanced configuration, including replication.
• Using ORMs to their best advantage.

The focus is the skills needed by developers in a devops environment who need to step into the database administrator role. No previous database administration experience is assumed.
