Lo scopo di questo corso è che gli studenti apprendano l'utilizzo del linguaggio Transact-SQL che servirà nell'ambito di tutte le discipline correlate a SQL Server: Database Administration, Database Development e Business Intelligence. Il corso si rivolge pertanto a amministratori di database, a sviluppatori e a professionisti della Business Intelligence.
Tuttavia il corso può essere di interesse anche per utenti evoluti, non necessariamente focalizzati sull'utilizzo di database.
OBIETTIVI
Al termine del corso gli studenti saranno in grado di:
Amministratori di database, sviluppatori, professionisti della Business Intelligence.
Per partecipare con profitto a questo corso è necessario che gli allievi possiedano i seguenti prerequisiti:
Module 1: Introduction to Microsoft SQL Server 2016
This module introduces SQL Server, the versions of SQL Server, including cloud versions, and how to connect to SQL Server using SQL Server Management Studio.
Module 2: Introduction to T-SQL Querying
This module introduces the elements of T-SQL and their role in writing queries, describes the use of sets in SQL Server, describes the use of predicate logic in SQL Server, and describes the logical order of operations in SELECT statements.
This module introduces the fundamentals of the SELECT statement, focusing on queries against a single table.
Module 4: Querying Multiple TablesThis module explains how to write queries which combine data from multiple sources in SQL Server. The module introduces the use of JOINs in T-SQL queries as a mechanism for retrieving data from multiple tables.
Module 5: Sorting and Filtering DataThis module explains how to enhance queries to limit the rows they return, and to control the order in which the rows are displayed. The module also discusses how to resolve missing and unknown results.
Module 6: Working with SQL Server 2016 Data TypesThis module explains the data types SQL Server uses to store data. It introduces the many types of numeric and special-use data types. It also explains conversions between data types, and the importance of type precedence.
Module 7: Using DML to Modify DataThis module describes the use of Transact-SQL Data Manipulation Language to perform inserts, updates, and deletes to your data.
Module 8: Using Built-In Functions
This module introduces the use of functions that are built in to SQL Server Denali, and will discuss some common usages including data type conversion, testing for logical results and nullability.
Module 9: Grouping and Aggregating DataThis module introduces methods for grouping data within a query, aggregating the grouped data and filtering groups with HAVING. The module is designed to help the student grasp why a SELECT clause has restrictions placed upon column naming in the GROUP BY clause as well as which columns may be listed in the SELECT clause.
Module 10: Using SubqueriesThis module will introduce the use of subqueries in various parts of a SELECT statement. It will include the use of scalar and multi-result subqueries, and the use of the IN and EXISTS operators.
Module 11: Using Set OperatorsThis module introduces the set operators UNION, INTERSECT, and EXCEPT to compare rows between two input sets.
