Learn Real-World Query Skills, Performance Tuning, and Modern Postgres Tools to Deliver Efficient, High-Quality Apps
What separates average applications from fast, reliable, production-grade systems? Almost always, it comes down to one thing: how well developers understand and use their database. If you’ve ever wondered why a query slows down under real traffic, why an index suddenly matters, or how to shape data so your app remains stable as it grows, this book is built for you.
Practical SQL and PostgreSQL for Developers gives you the modern, hands-on guidance needed to build applications that stay fast, predictable, and easy to maintain. Instead of abstract theory, you’ll work with real SQL patterns, real PostgreSQL features, and real performance techniques used in production systems today. Whether you’re building SaaS platforms, analytics workloads, or everyday backend services, this book shows you how to think and build like a database-first developer.
You’ll learn how SQL and PostgreSQL actually behave under real workloads, and how to use that knowledge to write cleaner queries, structure better schemas, and tune your database with confidence. You’ll understand not just what to write, but why it performs the way it does.
By the time you finish, you’ll be able to:
- Write efficient SQL queries built for real application needs.
- Design schemas that scale predictably as your data grows.
- Use PostgreSQL indexing, constraints, and data types to improve performance.
- Analyze slow queries with EXPLAIN and fix them using proven tuning techniques.
- Work confidently with JSONB, CTEs, window functions, triggers, and advanced SQL features.
- Set up PostgreSQL environments, replication, pooling, and configurations with developer clarity.
- Deploy and monitor Postgres-backed applications using industry-standard tools.
- Apply practical techniques for concurrency, reliability, backups, and version upgrades.
If you’re ready to write faster queries, build smarter database structures, and ship applications that perform well in production, then now is the time to take the next step. Start reading and level up your PostgreSQL skills today.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
