PostgreSQL How To: Installing the Chinook Sample DB on a Distributed SQL Database

You can download and install the PostgreSQL version of the Chinook sample DB on a distributed SQL database like YugabyteDB with a replication factor of 3. YugabyteDB is a high performance distributed SQL database for global, internet-scale apps that gives you all the scalability characteristics of NoSQL without sacrificing ACID transactions or strong consistency. The Chinook data model represents a digital media store with 11 tables, indexes, primary and foreign key constraints, and over 15,000 rows of data. To get started, download and install YugabyteDB on your local machine, configure loopback addresses, create a 3 node cluster, enter the YSQL shell, and then build the Chinook database by downloading the Chinook scripts, creating the database, building the tables and objects, loading sample data into Chinook, and exploring the Chinook sample DB. With YugabyteDB, you can now start exploring the Chinook sample database and compare it with other databases like CockroachDB, Google Cloud Spanner, and MongoDB.
