# Azure Database for PostgreSQL Skill

This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Database for PostgreSQL. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.

## How to Use This Skill

> **IMPORTANT for Agent**: Use the **Category Index** below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g., `L35-L120`), use `read_file` with the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g., `[security.md](security.md)`), use `read_file` on the linked reference file

This skill requires **network access** to fetch documentation content:
- **Preferred**: Use `mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch`. Returns Markdown.
- **Fallback**: Use `WebFetch`. Returns Markdown.

## Category Index

| Security | L124-L155 | Securing Azure Database for PostgreSQL: auth (Entra, SCRAM, RBAC, users), network (VNet, firewall, Private Link), TLS/SSL, encryption/keys, managed identities, auditing, and security policies. |
| Configuration | L156-L215 | Configuring Azure Database for PostgreSQL servers: parameters, extensions, HA, networking, logging/monitoring, tuning (autovacuum, memory, WAL, connections), and deployment via CLI, ARM/Bicep, and VS Code. |
| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L216-L245 | Patterns and code for integrating Azure PostgreSQL with AI/ML (Language, AML, LangChain, Foundry, orchestration), app SDKs (C#, Java, Python, Go, PHP), VS Code/Copilot, Data Factory, and migration tools. |
| Deployment | L246-L253 | CI/CD deployment to Azure PostgreSQL, app integration (AKS/Django, Web Apps + VNet), flexible server Bicep provisioning, major upgrades, network migration, and point-in-time restore. |
