Retrieve Data (SELECT):

Learn to retrieve data from a database using SELECT statements.

Practice filtering data using WHERE clause and sorting using ORDER BY.

Modify Data (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE):

Understand how to insert new records, update existing ones, and delete data.

Be cautious with DELETE to avoid unintentional data loss.

Working with Functions:

Explore SQL functions like COUNT, AVG, SUM, MAX, MIN for data analysis.

Understand string functions, date functions, and mathematical functions.

Data Filtering and Sorting:

Learn advanced filtering techniques using AND, OR, and IN operators.

Practice sorting data using multiple columns.


Table Relationships (JOIN):

Understand the concept of joining tables to retrieve data from multiple tables.

Learn about INNER JOIN, LEFT JOIN, RIGHT JOIN, and FULL JOIN.

Grouping and Aggregation:

Explore GROUP BY clause to group data based on specific columns.

Understand aggregate functions for summarizing data (SUM, AVG, COUNT).

Subqueries:

Learn to use subqueries to perform complex queries.

Understand how to use subqueries in SELECT, WHERE, and FROM clauses.

Indexes and Optimization:

Gain knowledge about indexes and their role in optimizing queries.

Understand how to optimize SQL queries for better performance.

Transactions and ACID Properties:

Learn about transactions and the ACID properties (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability).

Understand how to use transactions to maintain data integrity.

Normalization:

Understand the basics of database normalization to design efficient databases.

Learn about 1NF, 2NF, 3NF, and BCNF.


Backup and Recovery:

Understand the importance of database backups.

Learn how to perform backups and recovery operations.

Practice and Projects:
