Master PostgreSQL Database Administration in Nepal: Advanced DBA Workshop
8th August 2026, Kathmandu
Upgrade Your Database Engineering Career with Advanced PostgreSQL DBA Training in Kathmandu. As enterprise data requirements expand across Nepal’s tech sector, the demand for skilled PostgreSQL Database Administrators (DBAs) continues to reach new highs.
Master PostgreSQL Database Administration
To bridge the gap between basic database queries and production-grade database administration, Dharma of Data is launching an immersive 6-day training workshop titled ‘PostgreSQL Database Administration Hands-on Training (DBA1.1, DBA1.2, DBA1.3)’.
Held in Thamel, Kathmandu, this weekend course is structured for tech professionals looking to master database architecture, performance optimization, and fault-tolerant system design.
Why Focus on Practical PostgreSQL Administration?
Many developers and system operators can run standard SQL queries, but managing enterprise production databases requires expertise in performance tuning, disaster recovery, and internal process management.
This training shifts the focus from theory to real-world application:
Production Environments: Work directly on PostgreSQL 16 virtual machines.
Deep Architecture Understanding: Master MVCC, Write-Ahead Logging (WAL), and memory allocation.
Disaster Recovery: Practice Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR), data replication, and failover strategies.
Query Optimization: Diagnose slow-running queries and optimize database execution plans.
Instructor Profile: Nikolay Shaplov
Having a direct contributor to the open-source PostgreSQL project lead the course ensures deep technical clarity. Trainer Nikolay Shaplov has been developing software since the early 2000s, worked with Postgres Professional starting in 2015, and has contributed to the core PostgreSQL codebase since 2016.
His teaching method focuses on understanding the internal engine dynamics so engineers can troubleshoot complex database behaviors confidently.
