As for PostgreSQL-specific books, I can only speak for one I read before: Bruce Momjian's "PostgreSQL: Introduction and Concepts". It is a good introductionary book, although it isn't based on PostgreSQL 8 series.

Thanks Olexandr. I've got one of Celko's SQL books which I use as a reference. I'm looking for something that will help me as we move from our all-in-one server to something more robust. I want something that will give me pointers on what's needed and maybe best practices. I don't have any associates available to advise me on where my priorities should be: failover of course, but which RAID for the db, when and how to ______ (cluster, use material views, numerous other things which postgres has available, etc).

While there's a lot of information in the docs and flowing through the lists, it doesn't provide me with what I need. Since there isn't an updated version of Practical PostgreSQL to use as a guideline/reference I have to look for a non-DBMS specific reference.
