Microsoft SQL Server Training Courses
The Structured Query Language (SQL) is the core language used to create, maintain, populate, secure and interrogate realtional databases such as Microsft SQL Server, Azure SQL Databases, Azure Synapse Dedicated Pool and Serverless Pool Databases, Fabric Warehouses and Lakehouses. It is also an industry standard language adopted by Oracle, MySQL and many other relational database platforms.
PTR specialise in all things data and offer comprehensive range of SQL training courses and delivery styles to suit all of your training and mentoring needs. You can go straight to our SQL course schedule here.
The SQL language is made up of a number of sub categories of statements:
- Data Querying Language (DQL): SELECT
- Data Definition Langauge (DML): CREATE, ALTER, DROP
- Data Manupulation Language (DML): INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE
- Data Control Language: GRANT, REVOKE, DENY
Each vendor provides their own unique variant of SQL which offers the base SQL language statements but also a rich library of built in functions and a scripting language.
Microsoft's SQL offering is Transact SQL (TSQL). Our range of Microsoft SQL Training Courses are suitable for On-premise SQL Server, Azure SQL, Azure Synapse, Fabric Warehouse. You can follow the same SQL Training course for all the Microsoft database platforms.
The SELECT statement is the most important statement in the SQL Scripting language as it enables us to ask questions of our databases and retrieve selective records and attributes from our vast data repositiories. SQL queries are used by every person who comes into contact with a database whether they are simply extracting some data for a quick report, validating some data entry anomolies, checking security set up of a database, investigating available data in the database. Whatever your job role if you work with a database you will use the SQL SELECT statement to write SQL Database Queries.
