PostgreSQL Essential Reference is a reference book
for developers and system administrators who are already familiar with SQL
database concepts but that need clear and concise documentation that is
specific to PostgreSQL. The book is divided into 3 parts; Basic SQL
Reference, PostgreSQL specifics, and PostgreSQL administration. On a
whole, it provides a command, the syntax, available options, description,
and example code. Readers will be able to easily utilize the code and
concepts into their use f the product. An added advantage to this book
is that provides all reference material in two ways; alphabetically and by
task. This is important because readers of the book will be looking for
this information by both methods.
Arguably the most capable of all the open source
databases, PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system
first developed in 1977 by the University of California at Berkeley. In
spite of its long history, this robust database suffers from a lack of
easy-to-use documentation. Practical PostgreSQL fills that void with a
fast-paced guide to installation, configuration, and usage.
Complete with a CD-ROM of the PostgreSQL Application
Server, LXP, this comprehensive new volume shows you how to compile
PostgreSQL from source, create a database, and configure PostgreSQL to
accept client-server connections. It also covers the many advanced
features, such as transactions, versioning, replication, and referential
integrity that enable developers and DBAs to use PostgreSQL for serious
business applications. The thorough introduction to PostgreSQL's PL/pgSQL
programming language explains how you can use this very useful but
under-documented feature to develop stored procedures and triggers. The
book includes a complete command reference, and database administrators
will appreciate the chapters on user management, database maintenance, and
backup & recovery. With Practical PostgreSQL, you will discover
quickly why this open source database is such a great open source
alternative to proprietary products from Oracle, IBM, and
Microsoft.
Postgresql:
Developer's Handbook by Ewald Geschwinde - PostgreSQL Developer's Handbook
provides a complete overview of the PostgreSQL database server and
extensive coverage of its core features, including object orientation,
PL/pgSQL, and the most important programming interfaces.
The authors
introduce the reader to the language and syntax of PostgreSQL and then
move quickly into sophisticated programming topics. Readers will learn how
to program efficient date calculations, to integrate PostgreSQL into the
Microsoft Office environment and how to build dynamic Flash Web sites
using PostgreSQL.
The authors
provide tested sample code, accompanied by detailed explanations, allowing
developers to get up and running quickly with PostgreSQL and to solve
common PostgreSQL problems.
