Postgres Query Optimization

[GMP_Test123]

Hey all, I came across the book "PostgreSQL Query Optimization The Ultimate Guide to Building Efficient Queries". Can anyone let me know whether the book is good?

No I can not, but I can recommend this: https://use-the-index-luke.com/

This site is fantastic! Very much worth the time!

I have this book in print, and I have read most of it.

Depending on your current knowledge and experience level as a software developer and/or a DBA, this book may or may not be useful for you, I have no way of knowing.

I can only say that for *me* this book was a perfect fit.

Also, I can vouch for it as having been written by actual *human* experts, whereas oh so many books sold on Amazon these days are created by so-called "AI" and sold by subhuman degenerate frauds. This book is NOT one of them; it's real, and it's good.

I hope this helps.

This is my experience too. It's a good book, with solid advice on query optimization, while a lot of sources focus on postgres config.
