This is the first volume of a book series covering PostgreSQL from the database administration point of view.The book covers PostgreSQL 11 on Linux analysing the install procedure either from sourceand with packages on Debian and RPM based systems.A good part of the book explains the logical organisation and the physical structure in order to givethe reader a good starting point to understand the PostgreSQL internals.Logical backup and restore with pg_dump are also analysed and performance tips for speeding up a disaster recovery are given.The book also explain how PostgreSQL executes a query, the maintenance and the internal statistics in order to give the database administrators the know how for keeping PostgreSQL running efficiently at all time.

PostgreSQL is an object-relational database server that is widely considered to be the world¿s most advanced open-source database system. It is ANSI SQL-compatible, and it offers powerful features to enable more complex software design than would be possible with relational databases that are not object-oriented. PostgreSQL is extremely modular, it supports a large number of datatypes, and programming interfaces for PostgreSQL are available for all important programming languages, including C, Perl, Python, Tcl, Java, and PHP. PostgreSQL Developer¿s Handbook provides a complete overview of the PostgreSQL database server and extensive coverage of its core features, including object orientation, PL/pgSQL, and the most important programming interfaces. The book introduces the reader to the language and syntax of PostgreSQL and then moves quickly into advanced programming topics.

Sams¿ PHP and MySQL Web Development, by Luke Welling and Laura Thomson, showed that there is a strong demand for books that describe how to use PHP together with a specific open-source database to develop Web applications. While MySQL is very popular, PostgreSQL is widely considered to be the more powerful of the two open-source databases. And PostgreSQL is rapidly gaining market share large organizations are beginning to use PostgreSQL instead of Oracle; the demand for PostgreSQL training and support has increased by some accounts 50% in the last six months; and Web hosting services increasingly offer PostgreSQL along with MySQL. PHP and PostgreSQL Advanced Web Programming focuses on the specific needs of a PostgreSQL developer and will detail how to make use of PostgreSQL¿s unique, advanced features to develop high-availability, fail-safe Web applications with PHP and PostgreSQL.

The first book to show readers how to create a complete e-commerce driven website using two of the most popular open source technologies, PHP and PostgreSQL Adapted from the strong selling Beginning PHP 5 and MySQL E-Commerce, this book is based on a proven and popular instructional model. PostgreSQL, long the second most popular open source database in the world, has seen a significant resurgence in interest throughout 2005 due to software enhancements and considerable capital injections. It stands to reason already strong interest in this database will continue to grow for the foreseeable future.

Mono is an open-source implementation of the infrastructure upon which Microsoft's .NET Framework is built. Providing a compatible option with all of the technical features of .NET without the restrictive licensing and prohibitive costs that Microsoft imposes, the Mono project was initiated and co-financed by Ximian Corporation for the development of an open source version of .NET Framework for Linux/Unix and Windows platforms (Mac OS X support will be added).. Mono will allow cross-platform programming and operating of .NET compatible applications. Experts see the presence of a Unix-compatible version as decisive for the success of .NET. Mono Kick Start is a practical introduction to Mono and .NET compatible application programming with Mono. After a classically structured crash-course on the C# language and Mono¿s own compiler, the authors reach down deeper to subjects like threads, network programming, security, database interaction, XML, and more. A comprehensive practical section shows you how to set up Web applications with Mono, how GUIs can be programmed using GTK, and how applications written with .NET can be operated in the Mono framework.
