This instructor-led, live training in Brazil (online or onsite) is designed for database administrators and cloud architects who wish to migrate Oracle databases to Azure SQL or PostgreSQL.

Upon completion of this training, participants will be capable of:

• Evaluating Azure SQL against PostgreSQL to select the database that best aligns with business goals and requirements.
• Preparing databases to transfer definitions, data, and procedures from Oracle to the AzureSQL or PostgreSQL database systems.
• Executing post-migration procedures to test, optimize, update, and maintain the migrated database.

This course explores the core concepts of PostgreSQL server extensions and libraries designed to integrate AI capabilities into database systems. Key topics include semantic and similarity search using embedding vectors, Text-to-SQL query generation, and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Participants will learn to install PgVector and PgAI, manage vector embeddings, build vector indexes, and implement semantic search and RAG workflows. Additionally, the curriculum covers developing Text-to-SQL applications with LangChain in Python or JavaScript. Practical demonstrations and hands-on exercises reinforce these essential concepts and skills.

This practical course delves into the essential aspects of performance tuning within PostgreSQL. Participants will gain skills in analysing query execution, optimizing indexing strategies, configuring memory and system parameters, and effectively monitoring workloads. Through real-world scenarios and live exercises, attendees will learn how to identify and resolve bottlenecks at both the database and system levels.

This course covers the administration and performance optimization of PostgreSQL databases. Participants will learn how to utilize specialized PostgreSQL (also known as Postgres) modules, including replication, connection pooling, and full-text search capabilities.

This training is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to master PostgreSQL from the ground up.

Participants will gain in-depth knowledge of PostgreSQL architecture, installation procedures, design principles, and database backup and recovery strategies.

This training is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects aiming to master the tools and techniques for implementing Backups, High Availability, and Database Security in PostgreSQL.
Participants will also learn how to identify slow queries, monitor database performance, and optimize PostgreSQL for peak efficiency.

This training is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to master Streaming Replication in PostgreSQL. It demonstrates how to leverage pgpool-II to enable automatic failovers and establish a highly available PostgreSQL database cluster.

This course is tailored for Database Administrators and Architects seeking to optimize PostgreSQL databases for peak performance.
