      abstract = {Obtain all the skills you need to configure and manage a  PostgreSQL database. In this book you will begin by  installing and configuring PostgreSQL on a server by  focusing on system-level parameter settings before  installation. You will also look at key post-installation  steps to avoid issues in the future. The basic  configuration of PostgreSQL is tuned for compatibility  rather than performance. Keeping this in mind, you will  fine-tune your PostgreSQL parameters based on your  environment and application behavior. You will then get  tips to improve database monitoring and maintenance  followed by database security for handling sensitive data  in PostgreSQL. Every system containing valuable data needs  to be backed-up regularly. PostgreSQL follows a simple  back-up procedure and provides fundamental approaches to  back up your data. You will go through these approaches and  choose the right one based on your environment. Running  your application with limited resources can be tricky. To  achieve this you will implement a pooling mechanism for  your PostgreSQL instances to connect to other databases.  Finally, you will take a look at some basic errors faced  while working with PostgreSQL and learn to resolve them in  the quickest manner. What You Will Learn Configure  PostgreSQL for performance Monitor and maintain PostgreSQL  instances Implement a backup strategy for your data Resolve  errors faced while using PostgreSQL Who This Book Is For  Readers with basic knowledge of PostgreSQL who wish to  implement key solutions based on their environment.},
