MySQL: Querying Data

Explore how MySQL continue to play an important role in complementing both data warehouses and programming language based frameworks, in this 10-video course. Learners will observe how MySQL tables can be queried by using classic SQL syntax and how common types of queries tie closely to common patterns in table design. Key concepts covered here include how to write queries to explore entity and relationship data, including foreign keys; how to translate entity-relationship models into actual database table schemas; and learning about correct data types and constraints for specific columns in a table schema. You will learn how to use relational and logical operators in WHERE clause of MySQL queries; how to use LIKE and IN operators, as well as pattern matching with wildcards in queries; and how to use subqueries to perform complex logical operations. Next, learn to implement referential integrity checks by using foreign key constraints. Finally, you will learn how to perform filtering operations on date columns; and how to use LIMIT and ORDER BY clauses in MySQL queries.
