PostgreSQL Training Overview

MindMajix's PostgreSQL course gives you production-grade skills to design, deploy, secure, and tune databases on PostgreSQL — the free, open-source relational database that now leads the industry. Across 28 hours of instructor-led or self-paced training, you'll work entirely hands-on: install and configure a cluster, write and optimize SQL, manage users and access control with pg_hba.conf, take and restore backups, set up streaming and logical replication, and tune slow queries with EXPLAIN. The curriculum tracks a current PostgreSQL 18 release and prepares you for the EDB Essentials and EDB Advanced for PostgreSQL certifications.

 

Why learn PostgreSQL?

  • PostgreSQL is the #1 database in the industry. In the 2025 Stack Overflow Developer Survey, it was the most-used database among all developers at 55.6%, rising to 58.2% among professional developers — well ahead of MySQL.4
  • It's growing faster than any competitor: According to the DB-Engines / Redgate press release, June 2026, PostgreSQL was the fastest-growing database in DB-Engines' first-half 2026 rankings, adding more popularity than Databricks, MongoDB, or Snowflake.
  • Global enterprises run on it. Companies such as Apple, Instagram, Uber, and Reddit rely on PostgreSQL in production, and organizations are actively migrating off costlier proprietary databases to cut licensing costs.
  • It pays well, and demand is strong in both India and the USA (verified ranges in the PostgreSQL Roadmap section at the bottom).

 

Skills You Will Develop:

After completing the lessons, labs, assessments, and projects, you should be able to:

  • Explain PostgreSQL processes, memory, storage, WAL, and checkpoint behavior.
  • Create and operate PostgreSQL clusters, databases, schemas, and objects.
  • Apply role-based access, authentication, and least-privilege principles.
  • Build tested logical and physical backup strategies.
  • Restore databases and perform recovery to a specified point in time.
  • Diagnose blocking, deadlocks, session pressure, and resource bottlenecks.
  • Maintain database health with VACUUM, ANALYZE, autovacuum, and index maintenance.
  • Investigate slow SQL with execution plans and PostgreSQL statistics.
  • Configure and monitor physical and logical replication.
  • Evaluate availability, pooling, migration, and upgrade approaches.
  • Document operational procedures through runbooks and project reports.

PostgreSQL Training FAQs

Can a fresher or non-IT person learn PostgreSQL?

Yes. PostgreSQL is administered largely through SQL and the psql command line, and MindMajix starts from absolute zero — installation, the data model, and basic SQL — before moving to administration. Many learners enter PostgreSQL DBA roles from support, testing, or non-IT backgrounds. Scripting for automation is introduced gradually, not assumed on day one.

Do I need programming experience to start learning PostgreSQL?

Not to begin. Core database work is done in SQL and psql, which you learn in-course. Shell scripting or Python helps later for automating backups and maintenance, but it is not required for foundational tasks like creating databases, running queries, taking backups, and managing users.

What is the minimum qualification to enrol?

Any graduate from any discipline can enrol. There is no mandatory IT or computer-science degree to start with PostgreSQL — basic computer literacy, an interest in databases, and consistent hands-on practice on a free PostgreSQL install matter most.

Which PostgreSQL certification should a fresher target first?

Begin with the EDB Essentials for PostgreSQL exam (available for v18, v16, and v14) — EDB's foundation-level community-PostgreSQL credential covering installation, configuration, SQL, security, and backup. EDB's own training courses are free; you pay only the exam fee (roughly USD 200–250). Confirm current pricing and version on the EDB training portal before booking.

Is PostgreSQL useful for working IT and database professionals?

Yes. PostgreSQL was the most-used database in the 2025 Stack Overflow Developer Survey (55.6%) and the fastest-growing database in DB-Engines' H1 2026 rankings. Demand for PostgreSQL DBAs, developers, and architects is strong across India and the U.S. as organisations migrate off costlier proprietary databases.

I know SQL and Linux — will my skills transfer to PostgreSQL?

Directly. Your SQL experience maps straight to PostgreSQL querying and object management, and Linux/Unix command-line comfort accelerates installation, configuration, and pg_hba.conf-based access control. Existing DBA experience on Oracle, SQL Server, or MySQL transfers well — the genuinely new material is PostgreSQL's MVCC, VACUUM, WAL, and replication model.

Do I need a prior certification before the EDB Essentials exam?

No. The EDB Essentials for PostgreSQL exam has no mandatory prerequisite — you can register directly. EDB recommends taking Essentials (or having equivalent hands-on experience) before attempting the higher-level EDB Advanced for PostgreSQL exam, but that is guidance, not a gate. Basic RDBMS understanding is the only prerequisite MindMajix lists.

Which PostgreSQL certification should a working professional target, and how long does it take?

Target the EDB Essentials for PostgreSQL exam first, then the EDB Advanced for PostgreSQL exam (v18 or v16) for partitioning, replication, PITR, and performance tuning. Both are multiple-choice exams taken via the EDB training portal. With a working IT background, most professionals reach Essentials readiness in about 4–6 weeks of steady, hands-on practice. Exam pricing and format can change, so confirm current details with EDB before booking.

Should I learn PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Oracle for my career?

It depends on your career choice. If you wish to build your career in full-stack development, data engineering, DevOps, or AI/ML solutions, then learning PostgreSQL is a good choice. If you want to build a career in the ERP or finance sector, then learning Oracle would be the right choice. Learning MySQL is a good choice if you want to build PHP or LAMP-based applications.

Does this course cover PostgreSQL on the cloud (AWS, Azure, and GCP)?

Yes, this course covers PostgreSQL administration on different cloud platforms, including AWS, Azure, and GCP.

What system requirements do I need to attend this training?

You will need:

  • A laptop, desktop, or tablet
  • Zoom or Google Meet installation
  • Windows, macOS, or Linux operating systems
  • A stable, high-speed internet connection

No, you don't need any PostgreSQL license to join the training. Our trainers will help you install and configure PostgreSQL on your system to perform your hands-on exercises.

Do you accept learners from all countries?

Yes, we accept learners from all over the world. You only need basic English communication skills to engage actively in the training.

I don't have any industry experience. Can I still join the PostgreSQL training?

Absolutely. You can join without prior industry experience. MindMajix trainers start with the fundamentals and gradually move to advanced PostgreSQL concepts, ensuring all learners understand them clearly.

Can learners from a non-technical background take this course?

Yes. Our trainers explain PostgreSQL concepts in a learner-friendly way, making it easy for non-technical learners to grasp them.

PostgreSQL Performance & Replication Specialist (EDB Advanced, v18)

Go deeper with the EDB Advanced for PostgreSQL (v18) exam: reading query plans and tuning with EXPLAIN, declarative table partitioning, tablespace management, Point-In-Time Recovery and continuous archiving, and setting up streaming replication. This builds the day-to-day skills a production PostgreSQL DBA is expected to own.

Senior PostgreSQL DBA — High Availability & Migration

Take ownership of production reliability: logical replication, switchover/switchback and failover design, Pgpool-II connection pooling and load balancing, major-version upgrades with pg_upgrade, and planning migrations onto PostgreSQL. No dedicated 'Senior DBA' exam exists — this stage is validated by the EDB Advanced certification plus several years running PostgreSQL in production.
