Develop programmatic functions to create powerful database applicationsAbout This Book- Write complex SQL queries and design a robust database design that fits your application's need- Improve database performance by indexing, partitioning tables, and query optimizing- A comprehensive guide covering the advanced PostgreSQL concepts without any hassleWho This Book Is ForIf you are a PostgreSQL developer with a basic knowledge of PostgreSQL development and you're want deeper knowledge to develop applications, then this book is for you. As this book does not cover basic installation and configurations, you should have PostgreSQL installed on your machine as a prerequisite.What You Will Learn- Write more complex queries with advanced SQL queries- Design a database that works with the application exactly the way you want- Make the database work in extreme conditions by tuning, optimizing, partitioning, and indexing- Develop applications in other programming languages such as Java and PHP- Use extensions to get extra benefits in terms of functionality and performance- Build an application that does not get locked by data manipulation- Explore in-built db functions and data type conversionsIn DetailPostgreSQL is the most advanced open source database in the world. It is easy to install, configure, and maintain by following the documentation; however, it's difficult to develop applications using programming languages and design databases accordingly. This book is what you need to get the most out of PostgreSQLYou will begin with advanced SQL topics such as views, materialized views, and cursors, and learn about performing data type conversions. You will then perform trigger operations and use trigger functions in PostgreSQL.
