Learn everything you need to know to build efficient SQL queries using this easy-to-follow beginner’s guide Key FeaturesExplore all SQL statements in depth using a variety of examplesGet to grips with database querying, data aggregate, manipulation, and much moreUnderstand how to explore and process data of varying complexity to tell a storyBook Description SQL is a powerful querying language that's used to store, manipulate, and retrieve data, and it is one of the most popular languages used by developers to query and analyze data efficiently. If you're looking for a comprehensive introduction to SQL, Learn SQL Database Programming will help you to get up to speed with using SQL to streamline your work in no time. Starting with an overview of relational database management systems, this book will show you how to set up and use MySQL Workbench and design a database using practical examples. You'll also discover how to query and manipulate data with SQL programming using MySQL Workbench. As you advance, you’ll create a database, query single and multiple tables, and modify data using SQL querying. This SQL book covers advanced SQL techniques, including aggregate functions, flow control statements, error handling, and subqueries, and helps you process your data to present your findings. Finally, you’ll implement best practices for writing SQL and designing indexes and tables. By the end of this SQL programming book, you’ll have gained the confidence to use SQL queries to retrieve and manipulate data. What you will learnInstall, configure, and use MySQL Workbench to restore a databaseExplore different data types such as string, numeric, and date and timeQuery a single table using the basic SQL SELECT statement and the FROM, WHERE, and ORDER BY clausesQuery multiple tables by understanding various types of table relationshipsModify data in tables using the INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statementsUse aggregate functions to group and summarize dataDetect bad data, duplicates, and irrelevant values while processing dataWho this book is for This book is for business analysts, SQL developers, database administrators, and students learning SQL. If you want to learn how to query and manipulate SQL data for database administration tasks or simply extract and organize relevant data for analysis, you’ll find this book useful. No prior SQL experience is required.

Enter a New World of Database Programming C# and ADO.NET facilitate the development of a new generation of database applications, including remote applications that run on the Web. Mastering C# Database Programming is the resource you need to thrive in this new world. Assuming no prior experience with database programming, this book teaches you every aspect of the craft, from GUI design to server development to middle-tier implementation. If you're familiar with earlier versions of ADO, you'll master the many new features of ADO.NET all the more quickly. You'll also learn the importance of XML within the new .NET paradigm. Coverage includes: Accessing a database using C# and ADO.NET Using SQL to access a database Using Visual Studio .NET to build applications Creating and modifying database tables Understanding ADO.NET classes Designing, building, and deploying Web applications that access a database Designing, building, and deploying effective Web services Using SQL Server's built-in XML capabilities Working with a database in a disconnected manner Using advanced transaction controls Using Transact-SQL to create stored procedures and functions in a SQL Server database

This edited volume describes current attempts to understand and to develop database programming languages. Earlier efforts to combine database and programming-language technologies involved coupling one system with another (such as SQL embedded in C) or combining functionalities in one system (as in Pascal R). The most recent work, on which this book focuses, develops integrated systems from a new, integrated technology. It shows, for example, how large knowledge-based systems, using this new technology, provide a uniform way of programming, storing, and managing data.

Non-VB programmers are shown how they can have the same database ease that Visual Basic programmers have: step-by-step coverage of data access in Visual Studio .NET, with example code in C#.

Covers fundamental and advanced Java database programming techniques for beginning and experienced readers This book covers the practical considerations and applications in database programming using Java NetBeans IDE, JavaServer Pages, JavaServer Faces, and Java Beans, and comes complete with authentic examples and detailed explanations. Two data-action methods are developed and presented in this important resource. With Java Persistence API and plug-in Tools, readers are directed step by step through the entire database programming development process and will be able to design and build professional data-action projects with a few lines of code in mere minutes. The second method, runtime object, allows readers to design and build more sophisticated and practical Java database applications. Advanced and updated Java database programming techniques such as Java Enterprise Edition development kits, Enterprise Java Beans, JavaServer Pages, JavaServer Faces, Java RowSet Object, and Java Updatable ResultSet are also discussed and implemented with numerous example projects. Ideal for classroom and professional training use, this text also features: A detailed introduction to NetBeans Integrated Development Environment Java web-based database programming techniques (web applications and web services) More than thirty detailed, real-life sample projects analyzed via line-by-line illustrations Problems and solutions for each chapter A wealth of supplemental material available for download from the book's ftp site, including PowerPoint slides, solution manual, JSP pages, sample image files, and sample databases Coverage of two popular database systems: SQL Server 2008 and Oracle This book provides undergraduate and graduate students as well as database programmers and software engineers with the necessary tools to handle the database programming issues in the Java NetBeans environment.
