In this module, we will cover the basic SQL commands used for interacting with databases, including data manipulation, definition, and control. You'll also learn how to set up Microsoft SQL Server, ensuring you're prepared for practical SQL operations throughout the course.

In this module, we will dive into the core database operations such as creating and managing databases, as well as manipulating data within tables. By the end, you'll be comfortable with performing basic and advanced operations using SQL commands in a live database environment.

In this module, we will explore powerful aggregate functions and clauses that help in summarizing and analyzing data. You’ll also learn to work with advanced grouping techniques, allowing you to write more complex and insightful SQL queries.

In this module, we’ll explore SQL operators that allow for more precise querying and manipulation of data. We will cover operators like comparison, logical, and set operators, along with their practical applications in SQL queries.

In this module, we will delve into SQL data types, focusing on the most commonly used types in SQL Server. You will learn how to select the correct data type for your tables, helping you manage data efficiently and effectively.

This module will introduce you to SQL constraints, essential for maintaining data integrity and relationships in your database. You’ll gain practical knowledge on applying and managing constraints in SQL Server to ensure accurate and reliable data storage.

In this module, we will explore ER diagrams, a crucial tool for designing and understanding database structures. You’ll learn how to construct these diagrams and use them to map out entities and relationships in your database.

This module will equip you with essential SQL functions for string manipulation, date handling, mathematical operations, and data type conversions. You will learn how to use these functions effectively in real-world scenarios to manipulate and analyze your data.

In this module, we will explore SQL joins, a powerful feature that allows you to combine data from multiple tables. You’ll learn how to use inner, outer, and self joins, and understand how to create advanced queries for sophisticated data retrieval.

In this module, we’ll explore stored procedures and how they enhance database performance and maintainability. You will gain hands-on experience in creating, executing, and managing stored procedures with parameters.

This module will focus on advanced SQL querying techniques, including subqueries and views. You’ll learn how to craft complex queries and streamline them using views for efficient data management.

In this module, you will learn how SQL triggers work to automate actions within the database. We will also cover transactions to manage data consistency, including techniques like COMMIT and ROLLBACK.

This final module will cover important topics in database management and security. You will learn how to normalize data, back up and restore databases, and apply security measures to protect your databases from common vulnerabilities.
