Motivation

The PostgreSQL database implementation is an integral part of many important software stacks, most importantly for me openQA. I learned database "by doing" but never properly. Given that we recently had (again) an incident related to specific details of how a database behaves under load maybe it's time to learn more about PostgreSQL.

Goals

• G1: A significant portion of PostgreSQL learning material has been covered

Execution

• Find courses or books, e.g. on https://learning.oreilly.com/ and study it
• Optional: Note down interesting ideas into tickets for follow-up on [our tooling](progress.opensuse.org/projects/qa/)
