Learning PostgreSQL with Java

Hi everyone, I just join Treehouse few minutes and thanks to adds/sponsor page at Facebook, I met Treehouse.

Here my question, my new job required me to handle the company database and my Senior ask me to look for the courses 'PostgreSQL with Java' over the internet. Been trying to look over at Treehouse but couldn't find it. :(

Can anyone point me the direction since I'm still new. Thanks alot!

I don't think there are any courses on PostgreSQL at this time. I would love a course on PostgreSQL also.

There might be a course on Java and databases in the near future. If there is I imagine it will be on either SQLite or Mysql though.

I started learning PostgreSQL myself about a year ago and found that if you know another SQL database system like MySQL learning PostgreSQL is pretty easy. You might start with a simple PostgreSQL book to get you started then look at some popular Java ORMs to make things easier.

Hope that helps some.

Thanks for your reply Adam Sommer.

Well it pretty hard to find PostgreSQL with Java over internet. I not sure where to find the book here in Malaysia. Pretty tough I say.

Anyway Thanks again!

I totally should have recommended Youtube as well as looking for a book. Here's one Youtube link I found. Not sure how good it is, but hopefully it will get you srarted.

Also, here is a link to a PostgreSQL book in HTML format. Again not sure of the quality, but any progress is good progress :-).

Another place to look is O'Reilly's site they should have multiple books on PostgreSQL that you can get in print more convenient ebook formats.

Good luck, learning PostgreSQL is definitely with it, I've found it to be a great platform to build on.

Thanks for the links! I notice that for youtube video, it only part 1. I don't see continuation on part 2 ( but I haven't fully go through part 1 yet :p) And for momjian website, I believe the authors focusing more on SQL queries, not much on Java I guess, but it good starting point for me to learn PostgreSQL itself.

Really appreciated that.
