Thousands of companies are using PostgreSQL for their business critical as well as non-critical applications. PostgreSQL is not just limited to one industry – it is pretty much everywhere.

Moreover, PostgreSQL comes with many features aimed to help developers build applications. It also helps administrators to protect data integrity and build fault-tolerant environments. It is extensible. For example, you can define your own data types, build custom functions or even write code from different programming languages without recompiling your database.
Also, because of the advanced features and powerful capabilities, the adoption of PostgreSQL is increasing widely in the market since past few years. It requires very minimum maintenance efforts because of its stability. Therefore, applications based on PostgreSQL have a low total cost of ownership in comparison with other database management systems.

I grew up in a small town in India. A friendly child, my home was troubled. I withdrew into my shell, becoming aloof and angry. At age 15, I started working in a factory where I labored 12 hours/day with only $2 as a daily salary.
LAST CHANCE BLOWN
Reading business magazines in the factory corner, a dream was born. Could I improve my life? Feeling certain I was destined for freedom, for a 15-year old - it seemed like a pipe dream. Education was the only way out. My friends left for college, but I couldn’t afford to pay. Had I blown my last chance?
A YEAR’S SALARY
In 1995, a new computer institute threw its doors open in our town. Tuition was greater than a year’s salary, but I scraped together funds for the first class where I found my passion: programming. I met my wife there and we fell madly in love. Our marriage was disapproved of! Ultimately I had to run away from home with only a suitcase full of clothes. After our marriage, we traveled to Canada and started a new life.
THE NEW LIFE
I had no contacts or resources, but I was determined to improve my life. I realized education and the right training was the only way for me to achieve my goals.
Somehow I managed to acquire modest education.
From there I went on to become a technical leader and CTO in multiple startups.
All this happened because of education and training. So I am very passionate about learning and sharing knowledge.
I favor pragmatic solutions over complex ones.
I favor scrappiness over lavishness.
I favor fast execution over endless deliberation.
I favor serving the CUSTOMER over my own desires to build something cool.
I favor bending the rules (without breaking them) over abiding by them.
I believe in the resiliency and adaptability of the human race, and I know we can overcome any challenge if we work together.

From $2/day to the boardrooms of Fortune 500. The place was a small state called Punjab in North India. The period was between the 1980s to early 1990s when i just started my journey of becoming a business mentor.
There was no internet. No one knew what a personal computer was and definitely not the concept of connecting with people across the globe through electronic means.
Today, with four patents, two published books, and 180K+ students across the globe, I am a business consultant, seasoned entrepreneur and a technology expert.
In this 25-year career, I have worked with multiple businesses in diverse industries from startups to Fortune 500 companies like Microsoft, Pearson, IBM, and many others.
