Try reading this book "Postgres: The First Experience".

And of course, read the Percona blog about PostgreSQL. Even if it's not clear now, it may come in handy in the future.

For books, I would propose the same book but for the course part, I would suggest you go through with these PostgreSQL tutorials.

Hi @Nganso

  1. ,

    Migration to a different host machine with an upgraded version is usually done in the following steps.

    Install both old (PG 9.6) and new (PG 12) binaries on the new host machine.

  2. Setup new host as one of the standby server for existing database using PG 9.6 binary.
  3. Cut-over to new host machine. but still PG 9.6
  4. Do In-place upgrade from old version (PG 9.6) to new version (PG12) using pg_upgrade hard links.

Regards,

Jobin
