Learn the Basics of RBD and SQL
Hi. Since I have just finished my degree in CS I was looking for my first job. Now my biggest concern is my poor knowledge about the SQL and Relational Databases. I am looking for good and concrete courses fast to read but difficult to understand. The level of the courses I am looking for are the same as the papers: "A relational model of data for large shared data banks" and "The entity relationship model". The roots of RDB.
Could you help me?
- bartonfink 15y agohttp://www.db-book.com/ http://www.db-book.com/ It's a website that's meant to accompany a textbook I used in college, but you don't really need the textbook. This site has slides that cover the material well enough to get started. Note that it's relationally-specific almost to a fault, so you won't get a whole lot of insight into NoSQL if you decide you want to go that route later.
- bgilroy26 15y agoI got a lot out of Anthony Molinaro's SQL Cookbook, it had a surprising amount of theory in it. It doesn't sound like you're looking for a cookbook type book though, what I think you're looking for is books by C.J. Date and Joe Celko.
