In this Microsoft DP-080 course from Vijfhart, you will learn how to use Transact-SQL to query and modify data in relational, Microsoft SQL Server-based database systems such as Microsoft SQL Server, Azure SQL Database, and Azure Synapse Analytics.
We cover writing SELECT statements to retrieve columns from one or more tables, after which you will discover how to sort and filter query results. You will not only work with simple queries, but also learn how to use joins and subqueries to combine data from multiple tables. In addition, you will be introduced to built-in functions to manipulate or calculate values, and learn how to group data and aggregate results. For example, you will be able to calculate totals and averages and directly apply them in analyses relevant to your daily work. You will also practice modifying data with INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and MERGE, so you gain experience not only in retrieving data but also in maintaining and updating the database.
During the course, you will work in a training environment with real data structures and use the SQL Server query tools, so you directly experience how these techniques function in practice. This way, you will quickly become proficient in Transact-SQL in a manner that suits your way of working and the challenges you encounter in your organization.
