Look inside

This course will teach you how to use the SQL language within Microsoft SQL Server, one of the most popular database engines in the world.

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system developed by Microsoft. As a database server, it is a software product with the primary function of storing and retrieving data as requested by other software applications. We will explore best practices in database development using SQL Server and will be building a small school database management system.

You will go through setting up an environment, to creating a database, creating your first table and writing queries. At the end of this course, you should be comfortable writing queries for multiple situations and reports.

This is a zero to hero course on Microsoft SQL Databases and Querying. This course provides you with fundamental SQL Server training and is enough to get you started as a Database Developer or Junior Database Administrator.
