    1. @elmigrantoSep 2016· in “Things I Hate About PostgreSQL (2013)”

      I found this to be great introductory that touches on all the major points to keep in mind with Postgres. It's pretty up-to-date too! this video It isn't quite what you ask for, but should be enough to get you high-level overview of major systems and contains solid practical advices (on vacuuming, mvcc, replication, backups, etc…), so you know what to google for deeper understanding.
