IT547 Assignment 7 Instructions

We are going to use MariaDB (command prompt) for this Lab Assignment. Create a Word document
named Lab9.docx

Steps:

1) Log into your installation of MariaDB at the command prompt

2) Create a database named Lab9LastName

 Type in CREATE DATABASE Lab9LastName; *LastName should be your last name such
as Lab9Heiden (for me).
 To verify the database is created type SHOW DATABASES;
 Provide SCREENSHOT 1 of the results (in Word document)
3) Set lab9heiden as current database by typing USE DATABASE lab9heiden;

4) Create the table “movie”

 Type in CREATE TABLE movie (ID int, ReleaseYear int, Title varchar(255), OriginEthnicity
varchar(255), Director varchar(255), PRIMARY KEY (ID));
 Then type in show tables; to confirm the creation of the table.
 Then type in describe movie; to confirm the fields are created properly.
 Provide SCREENSHOT 2 of the results (in Word document)
5) Let’s download the data.

Please download the file that is provided wiki_movie.csv.

Now load it into the data directory. You can copy it to the file – if it is on Microsoft Windows it may be in
the C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.6\data . Specifically, there should be a folder for your database –
lab9heiden.
6) Load the data into the table “movie”

 Now type LOAD DATA INFILE 'wiki_movie.csv' IGNORE INTO TABLE movie COLUMNS
TERMINATED BY ',';
 Now let’s get a count of the records in the table by typing in select count(*) from movie;
 Provide SCREENSHOT 3 of the results (in Word document)

7) Count how many records have the word and in the title using the LIKE operator looking for a
movie title with face in it.

 Type in select count(*) from movie where title like '%face%';


 Provide SCREENSHOT 4 of the results (in Word document)
8) Write a query with the fields that demonstrates how much server time it takes for the query when
not using an index.

 Type in the following: select ID, ReleaseYear, Title, OriginEthnicity, Director from movie where
title like '%face%';
 Provide SCREENSHOT 5 of the results (in Word document)

9) Again write a query to count the records with the word face in the title and mention the server time
it takes for the query without index to run.

 Type in: select count(*) from movie where title like '%face%';
 Provide SCREENSHOT 6 of the results (in Word document)
10) Add an index on the title field that will help increase results time.

 Type in: CREATE INDEX index_title on movie(title);


 Type in: SHOW INDEXES FROM movie;
 Provide SCREENSHOT 7 of the results (in Word document)

11) Use the index to see the results of using an index instead of a full table search with the count(*).

 Type in select count(*) from movie where title like '%face%';


 Provide SCREENSHOT 8 of the results (in Word document)
12) Use the index to see the results of using an index instead of a full table search with all of the
fields.

 Type in the following: select ID, ReleaseYear, Title, OriginEthnicity, Director FROM movie WHERE
title like '%face%';
 Provide SCREENSHOT 9 of the results (in Word document)
