This title is both a tutorial and reference on the PostgreSQL open-source database. Topics covered include: aggregates, arrays and inheritance, importing and exporting data, joining tables, performance, data management, administration, and extending PostgreSQL.
The open source PostgreSQL database is soaring in popularity, as thousands of database and web professionals discover its powerful features, transaction support, performance, and industrial-strength scalability. In this book, a founding member of the PostgreSQL development team introduces everything you need to know to succeed with PostgreSQL, from basic SQL commands through database administration and optimization. PostgreSQL assumes no previous database expertise: it establishes a firm foundation of basic concepts and commands before turning to PostgreSQL's advanced, innovative capabilities. Bruce Momjian walks readers step-by-step from their first database queries through the complex queries needed to solve real-world problems. He presents proper query syntax, then explores the value and use of each key SQL commands in working applications. Learn to manipulate and update databases, customize queries, work with SQL aggregates, use joins, combine SELECTs with subqueries, work with triggers and transactions, import and export data, use PostgreSQL query tools, and more.
Discover PostgreSQL techniques for server-side programming and multi-user control, and master PostgreSQL's interfaces to C, C++, ODBC, JDBC, Perl, and Tcl/TK. You'll also find detailed coverage of PostgreSQL administration, including backups, troubleshooting, and access configuration.

Bruce Momjian is a founding member of the PostgreSQL Global Development Team. He is currently a senior consultant with Wilson Technology Associates in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, designing and developing relational database applications for some of the largest law firms nationwide. 0201703319AB04062001
