What is a Database?
Database Types of Databases SQL
A database is an organized Relational Databases (RDBMS) Structured Query Language,
collection of data, typically used to interact with databases.
Structured data stored in
stored and accessed
tables with relationships Perform tasks like retrieving,
electronically.
between them. Example: updating, deleting, and
MySQL, PostgreSQL manipulating data.

Non-Relational Databases SQL is the standard language

(NoSQL) for relational databases.

Data stored in non-tabular

formats such as documents,
key-value pairs, or graphs.
Example: MongoDB,
Cassandra.
What is MySQL?
1 MySQL
A widely-used, open-source Relational Database Management
System (RDBMS).

2 Supports SQL
Used in web applications, analytics, e-commerce, and more.

3 Where MySQL is Used

Web applications (Facebook, Twitter), e-commerce platforms
(Shopify), data analytics platforms, content management systems
(WordPress).
CRUD Operations

Database Overview: classicmodels
Business Context: This database models a vehicle business that sells products and manages orders,
employees, customers, and payments.

SQL Operations
Arithmetic Operations
Comparison Operations
Logical Operations
String Operations
Date and Time Operations
Aggregation Operations
NULL Operation
Other Operations
Arithmetic Operation
Perform mathematical calculations on numeric data.

Add Substract Multiply

SELECT buyPrice + 10 FROM SELECT buyPrice - 5 FROM SELECT buyPrice * 2 FROM
products; products; products;

Divide Modulus
SELECT buyPrice / 2 FROM products; SELECT buyPrice % 2 FROM products;
Comparison Operation

Equal Not Equal Greater Than

SELECT * FROM products SELECT * FROM products SELECT * FROM products
WHERE buyPrice = 50; WHERE buyPrice != 50; WHERE buyPrice > 100;

BETWEEN IN

WHERE buyPrice BETWEEN 50 AND 100; WHERE buyPrice IN (50, 100, 150);
Logical Operation

AND OR NOT
SELECT * FROM products SELECT * FROM products SELECT * FROM products
WHERE buyPrice > 50 AND WHERE buyPrice > 100 OR WHERE NOT productLine =
productLine = 'Motorcycles'; productLine = 'Classic Cars'; 'Motorcycles';
String Operation

Uppercase Concatenation Substring

SELECT UPPER(productName) SELECT CONCAT(firstName, ' ', SELECT
FROM products; lastName) AS FullName FROM SUBSTRING(productName, 1, 5)
employees; FROM products;

LIKE
SELECT productName FROM products WHERE productName LIKE 'S%';
Date and Time Operations
Work with date and time data in SQL.

Current Date Extract Year Date Difference

SELECT CURDATE(); SELECT YEAR(orderDate) FROM SELECT DATEDIFF(shippedDate,
orders; orderDate) FROM orders;

Add Days
SELECT orderDate + INTERVAL 10 DAY FROM orders;
Aggregate Operations

COUNT SUM AVG

SELECT COUNT(*) AS SELECT SUM(buyPrice) AS SELECT AVG(buyPrice) AS
TotalProducts FROM products; TotalPrice FROM products; AveragePrice FROM products;

MAX MIN
SELECT MAX(buyPrice) AS MaxPrice FROM SELECT MIN(buyPrice) AS MinPrice FROM products;
products;
NULL Operations
Functions to handle NULL values in SQL.

IS NULL IS NOT NULL COALESCE

SELECT * FROM products SELECT * FROM products SELECT COALESCE(buyPrice, 0)
WHERE buyPrice IS NULL; WHERE buyPrice IS NOT NULL; AS FinalPrice FROM products;
Other Operations
Additional SQL functions to perform specific tasks.

CAST IF
SELECT CAST(buyPrice AS DECIMAL(10,2)) FROM SELECT IF(buyPrice > 100, 'Expensive', 'Affordable')
products; AS PriceCategory FROM products;

CASE
SELECT CASE WHEN buyPrice > 100 THEN 'Expensive' ELSE 'Affordable' END AS PriceCategory FROM products;
practice

1 Add 100 to the amount for all payments.

Retrieve customers with a creditLimit between 20000 and 50000.

2

Select all products where buyPrice is greater than 100 and quantityInStock is more than 50.
3

Extract the first 5 characters from each productName.

4

Concatenate the contact first names and contact last names of all customers into a single column
5
called "Contact Fullname."

Calculate the number of days between orderDate and shippedDate for all orders.
6

Count the total number of products in the Motorcycles product line.

7

Replace State with NULL values with city value.

8

Convert amount to a decimal value with no decimal places.

9

10 Categorize Order as 'High Volume' if Ordered quantity is greater than 100, and 'Low Volume'
otherwise from orderDetails
Aggregation
The GROUP BY clause in SQL is used to group rows that have the same values

COUNT (Single Column) COUNT (Multiple Column)

SELECT productLine, COUNT(*) AS productCount SELECT productLine, productVendor, COUNT(*) AS
FROM products GROUP BY productLine; productCount FROM products GROUP BY
productLine, productVendor;

SUM
SELECT productLine, SUM(buyPrice) AS totalValue FROM products GROUP BY productLine;
Aggregation - Filtering
The HAVING clause is used to filter data after it has been grouped.

HAVING
SELECT orderNumber, COUNT(*) AS orderCount

FROM orderdetails

GROUP BY orderNumber

HAVING COUNT(*) > 10;

Combining “GROUP BY” with other clauses

COMBINE
SELECT orderNumber, COUNT(*) AS orderCount

FROM orderdetails

WHERE quantityOrdered > 10

GROUP BY orderNumber
Limit
Controls the number of rows returned by a SELECT query.

LIMIT
SELECT productName, buyPrice

FROM products

LIMIT 5;

“LIMIT” with offset

Skips a specific number of rows before starting to return the rows.

OFFSET
SELECT productName, buyPrice

FROM products

LIMIT 5, 5;
practice
Calculate the total number of products in the Motorcycles product line.
1

Find the maximum buyPrice of all products in the Classic Cars product line.
2

Select 2nd costliest based on buyPrice from products.

3

4 Select all products and sort them by buyPrice in descending order.

Retrieve all products and sort them first by productLine in ascending order, then by buyPrice in
5
descending order.
Order By
Sorts the result set of a query by one or more columns.

Ascending (Default) Descending

SELECT productName, buyPrice SELECT productName, buyPrice

FROM products FROM products

ORDER BY buyPrice; ORDER BY buyPrice DESC;

Sorting Multiple Rows

SELECT productName, productLine, buyPrice

FROM products

ORDER BY productLine ASC, buyPrice DESC;

Combining ORDER, OFFSET & LIMIT

The order of execution is ORDER —> OFFSET —> LIMIT

SELECT productName, buyPrice

FROM products

ORDER BY buyPrice DESC

LIMIT 5, 5;
Joins

INNER LEFT RIGHT

An INNER JOIN returns only the A LEFT JOIN returns all rows from A RIGHT JOIN is the opposite of a
rows where there is a match in both the left table, and the matched LEFT JOIN. It returns all rows from
tables. rows from the right table. If no the right table, and the matched
match is found, NULL values are rows from the left table. If no match
returned for the columns of the is found, NULL values are returned

FULL CROSS JOIN WITH ALIAS

A FULL JOIN returns all rows when A CROSS JOIN returns the Cartesian Using table aliases can make your

columns of the missing table. second table.
However, MySQL doesn’t directly
support FULL JOIN. You can achieve
this by combining LEFT JOIN and
RIGHT JOIN with a UNION.

MULTIPLE JOINS
You can join more than two tables
by chaining multiple JOIN clauses.
Each additional table is joined in the
same manner as the first two.
Join
Inner Left
SELECT orders.orderNumber, orders.orderDate, SELECT customers.customerName,
customers.customerName orders.orderNumber

FROM orders FROM customers

INNER JOIN customers LEFT JOIN orders

ON orders.customerNumber = ON customers.customerNumber =
customers.customerNumber; orders.customerNumber;

Right Full
SELECT orders.orderNumber, SELECT customers.customerName,
customers.customerName orders.orderNumber

FROM orders FROM customers

RIGHT JOIN customers LEFT JOIN orders ON customers.customerNumber =

orders.customerNumber
ON orders.customerNumber =
customers.customerNumber; UNION

SELECT customers.customerName,
orders.orderNumber

FROM orders

RIGHT JOIN customers ON orders.customerNumber

= customers.customerNumber;

Cross Join with Alias

SELECT customers.customerName, SELECT c.customerName, o.orderNumber
products.productName
FROM customers AS c
FROM customers
INNER JOIN orders AS o
CROSS JOIN products;
ON c.customerNumber = o.customerNumber;

Multiple Joins
SELECT orders.orderNumber, customers.customerName, employees.firstName, employees.lastName

FROM orders

INNER JOIN customers ON orders.customerNumber = customers.customerNumber

INNER JOIN employees ON customers.salesRepEmployeeNumber = employees.employeeNumber;

practice
Retrieve the customerName and orderNumber for all customers who have placed orders.

representative (use salesRepEmployeeNumber to join employees and customers).
