Course info –

SQL Server is a relational database management system (RDBMS) developed by Microsoft, designed to store, retrieve, and manage data efficiently using SQL (Structured Query Language). It offers robust security features, including encryption, authentication, and authorization, to protect data. Additionally, SQL Server provides tools for database management, such as backup and restore, performance tuning, and monitoring. It integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft products and services like Azure, Power BI, and Visual Studio, making it a comprehensive solution for data management across various industries, including finance, healthcare, education, and e-commerce.

What will you learn?

As a SQL developer, you work on tasks such as:

Understanding how to design and structure databases, including creating tables, relationships, and constraints.
Learning to write SQL queries to retrieve, insert, update, and delete data from databases.
Creating and using stored procedures and functions to encapsulate and reuse SQL code.
Techniques for optimizing database performance, including indexing, query optimization, and monitoring.
Implementing security measures to protect data and learning how to back up and restore databases to ensure data integrity and availability.

SQL Server is a powerful relational database management system developed by Microsoft. It is widely used across various industries, including finance, healthcare, and e-commerce, to manage and analyze large volumes of data securely and efficiently. By mastering SQL Server, you can enhance your ability to handle complex data management tasks and support critical business operations.
