"While speeches are a great opportunity to tell people about PostgreSQL 
and to impart knowledge, they don't offer enough time to show 
techniques or strategies. I am excited about this training because it 
allows for in-depth coverage of PostgreSQL and the best way to use it."
- Bruce Momjian

"I've been using PostgreSQL for two years, and its performance and

tremendously proud that the Big Nerd Ranch is going help developers

server."
