  Ernst Lesterhuis, Global Knowledge- SQL Basics - Oracle

• “You learn the basic commands for querying a database and combining tables. This tied in perfectly with the issues I come across in my daily work. I was lucky to be in a class where everyone took part with the same goals. As a result the pace was high and you didn't have to wait for other participants. It is a requirement to have some knowledge of application management and database querying, so that you can translate the content straight into daily practice.”

What is the difference between SQL for Oracle and SQL for other databases?

The basics of SQL (SELECT, WHERE, JOIN, GROUP BY) are virtually the same in all databases. Oracle uses its own dialect, PL/SQL, with specific functions and syntax for dates, strings and subqueries, among other things. In this course you learn to work in that Oracle dialect using Oracle SQL Developer.

What is a JOIN and when do you use which variant?

A JOIN allows you to combine data from two or more tables on the basis of a shared column. An INNER JOIN returns only those rows that appear in both tables. A LEFT OUTER JOIN retains all rows from the left-hand table, even without a match. A RIGHT OUTER JOIN does the same for the right-hand table. During the course you will practise with all three variants.
