What you'll learn:
- Understand and write SQL queries to interact with databases
- Summarize and analyze data with powerful SQL query techniques
- Build stored procedures to create and dynamically access production-level datasets
- Understand how SQL Indexes work and what they do to improve query performance
- Understand how SQL Aggregate functions and Window Functions work
Learn how to understand and effectively write SQLQueries to interact with databases and build powerful datasets.
All resources are available to all operating systems - follow along from Windows, Linux or MacOS. (Instructions for installing MSSQLServer included for Linux and MacOS**)
"More of a refresher for me having spent many years working with Sybase T-SQL but really good and covered some additional SQL Server commands that I hadn't come across. Just what I needed." - Mike
"A fantastic course covering all the basics and diving deep into some advanced scenarios regarding SQL use!" - Ikenna
"The instructor's approach to teaching is so awesome. Very understandable and easy to follow along." - David
Learning Path:
There are 3 different levels you will go through in your journey to becoming a SQLQuery Writing Expert.
The learning objectives below outline what you will learn and be able to do and understand at the end of each section.
Basics
Create resources
View, add and delete data stored in database tables
Filter, sort, summarize and aggregate data from tables
Intermediate
Use built in SQLFunctions to transform and format data
Combine data from different tables
Return dynamic results with case statements and type casting
Advanced
Create indexes and understand how they work
Use window functions to access data from other rows in the dataset
Store query logic inside of stored procedures and access then with dynamic filters
Improve query performance with temporary tables and nested queries
If you are new to programming, or just new to SQLyou will get a floor up explanation of everything you need to know to write clean and powerful SQLQueries and Datasets for Applications, Reporting, or Data Analysis.
If you already know some SQL, you will get explanations of how things work that will lead to a strong understanding of complex topics, and a great reference for anything that is new to you!
By the end of the course your SQLtoolbox will be full of great tools to transform, manage, and read data using Structured Query Language.
