PostgreSQL is an object-relational database (ORDBMS) that was introduced into the database community and has been avidly used for a variety of information extraction use cases. It is also known to be an advanced SQL-compliant open source Object RDBMS. However, users have not yet resolved to PostgreSQL due to the fact that it is still under the layers and the complexity of its persistent textual environment for an amateur user. Hence, there is a dire need to provide an easy environment for users to comprehend the procedure and standards with which databases are created, tables and the relationships among them, manipulating queries and their flow based on conditions in PostgreSQL. As such, this project identifies the dominant features offered by Postgresql, analyzes the constraints that exist in the database user community in migrating to PostgreSQL and based on the scope and constraints identified, develop a system that will serve as a query generation platform as well as a learning tool that will provide an interactive environment to cognitively learn PostgreSQL query building. This is achieved using a visual editor incorporating a textual editor for a well-versed user. By providing visually-draggable query components to work with, this research aims to offer a cognitive, visual and tactile environment where users can interactively learn PostgreSQL query generation.
