SQL Joins:

The join clause allows us to retrieve data from two or more related tables

Types of Joins:

1.Inner join 2.Left(outer) join 3.Right(outer) join 4.full(outer) join


5.Cross join 6.Self Join

1.Inner join

Inner Join Returns the rows(records) that have matching data in both tables

SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 INNER JOIN table2 on


table1.column_name = table2.column_name;

select * from mobiles inner join accessories on mobiles.sid=accessories.ano;

2.Left join

Left join Returns all records from the left table, and the matched records
from the right table

SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 LEFT JOIN table2


on table1.column_name = table2.column_name;

select * from mobiles left join accessories on mobiles.sid=accessories.ano;

3.Right join

Right join Returns all records from the right table, and the matched records
from the left table

SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 RIGHT JOIN table2


ON table1.column_name = table2.column_name;

select * from mobiles right join accessories on mobiles.sid=accessories.ano;

4.Full join

Full join Returns all records from both tables where there is a match in either
left or right table. If there is no match it will show null values(blank)

Full join is not supported with mysql database.


Syntax:
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 FULL JOIN table2 ON table1.column
name = table2.column name;

5.Cross Join:

The cross join returns all records from both tables (table1 and table2) whether
the other table matches or not.
Cross join produces a Cartesian product of the two tables.
Syntax:
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 CROSS JOIN table2;
Ex:
Select * from mobiles cross join accessories;

6.Self Join:

self join is a type of join where a table is joined with itself. This allows to
compare rows within the same table.

Syntax:
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table_name aliasname1
JOIN table_name aliasname2 ON aliasname1.column_name =
aliasname2.column_name;

Ex:
select * from mobiles t1 join mobiles t2 on t1.mid=t2.mid;

Index:

Index is mainly used to speed up the searching of data in the database table.

Syntax:

Create index indexname on tablename(column names);

Example:
Create index myindex on mobiles(sid);

View:
Views can be used as security mechanism by letting users access the table data
without granting the permission to the tables

Syntax:
create view viewname as select column names from tablename;

Example:
create view myview as select id,name,salary,bonus,tax,department from
employees;

select * from myview;
