Course Topics

Microsoft SQL Server 2019 - Querying SQL Server

Course Duration - 10 hrs 5 min

This course provides students with the technical skills required to write basic Transact-SQL queries for Microsoft SQL Server. You will learn how to write queries that return data from tables and create, update, or delete data in a database. These queries will allow for filtering and sorting and effectively use the various data types the SQL Server provides. This course also covers using dynamic tables of different sorts, which can allow a more sophisticated SQL user to hide implementation details from other end users accessing data from reporting tools. Finally, the course will provide details on the what and how of error handling and transaction management. This course is the foundation for all SQL Server-related disciplines, namely, Database Administration, Database Development, and Business Intelligence. The primary target audience for this course is Database Administrators, Database Developers, and BI professionals.

Course Objectives:
Course Objectives:
  • Navigate and utilize the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) environment.
  • Explain the fundamental concepts of Transact-SQL (T-SQL) querying.
  • Write basic SELECT statements to retrieve data from a single table, including filtering duplicates, using aliases, and applying simple CASE expressions.)
  • Construct queries that join data from multiple tables using inner joins, outer joins, self-joins, and cross joins.
  • Sort and filter data using various techniques, including the ORDER BY clause, WHERE clause, TOP clause, OFFSET-FETCH clause, and handling NULL values.
  • Write queries that leverage different SQL Server data types, including date/time functions and character functions.
  • Utilize Data Manipulation Language (DML) statements to insert, update, and delete records within a database.
  • Incorporate built-in functions such as conversion functions, logical functions, and functions for handling NULL values into their queries.
  • Group and aggregate data using functions like SUM, COUNT, AVG, and the GROUP BY clause with HAVING for filtering groups.

Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Database Design

Course Duration - 6 hrs 22 min

This course focuses on skills necessary to architect well-performing databases in SQL Server. It covers the principles and the practical tools required to understand and create all the objects you need to have a complete database. This includes a discussion of tables, data integrity, and indexes. As well as basic programming, file storage, and full-text searching. One of the primary benefits of commercial-grade databases is the availability of indexes to speed lookups. You will learn the benefits and the requirements for generating useful indexes in OLTP (transactional) and OLAP (reporting) databases. Another significant benefit of business-focused RDBMS (Relational Database Management Systems) is the use of enforced relationships and constraints. This course will cover all the standard techniques to maintain consistent quality data in your database using referential integrity and various types of automatic data validations. One way to increase security and performance in a database is by using stored procedures, functions, and triggers. You will learn what each of these objects is and how to write the T-SQL code to generate them. We will also cover using SQL Management Studio to perform these various operations using visual tools where possible. At the end of the course, you should be able to create a highly functional business database.
