Foreign Key Constraints and Subqueries


1. Lab Objectives:
 Gain a solid understanding of what foreign key constraints are in relational
databases.
 Recognize the role of foreign keys in establishing relationships between tables.
 Implementing Referential Integrity:
- Learn how foreign key constraints enforce referential integrity in a database.
- Understand the importance of maintaining consistency between tables
through foreign keys.
 Exploring ON DELETE and ON UPDATE Actions:
- Explore the various actions (CASCADE, RESTRICT, SET NULL, SET
DEFAULT, etc.) associated with ON DELETE and ON UPDATE for foreign
key constraints.
 Identify and differentiate between different types of subqueries, including scalar,
column, row, and table subqueries.

Syntax: (ALTER)
ALTER TABLE child_table
ADD CONSTRAINT fk_name
FOREIGN KEY (child_column)
REFERENCES parent_table(parent_column)
ON UPDATE <action>
ON DELETE <action>;

Syntax: (subqueries)

SELECT column1, column2, ...


FROM main_table
WHERE column_name operator (SELECT column_name FROM sub_table
WHERE condition);
