SQL & Relational Database Engineering

Master schema modeling, multi-table joins, query optimization, and ACID transactional integrity.

Relational databases store the world's most critical transactional records. This program builds rock-solid competency in database design and SQL querying. You will learn normalization rules, entity-relationship modeling, multi-table JOINs, window functions, query execution planning, indexing strategies, and ACID transaction control.

Total Duration 6 Weeks (24 Live Hours)
Experience Level Beginner to Intermediate
Instructional Mode Self-Paced + Live Q&A Labs
Authorized Credential Course Certificate

What You Will Master

Design scalable, well-normalized relational database schemas with appropriate keys
Write performant SQL queries spanning complex interconnected tables
Enforce data integrity through primary, foreign, unique, and check constraints
Diagnose slow database queries using EXPLAIN execution plans and targeted indexes
Manage database transactions safely using COMMIT, ROLLBACK, and SAVEPOINT controls

Curriculum Modules

Sequenced deliberately to transition you from core statutory or architectural logic to independent practical execution.

RDBMS architecture, tables, keys (Primary, Foreign, Composite), ER diagram modeling, normalization rules from 1NF to 3NF, and DDL commands (CREATE, ALTER, DROP, TRUNCATE).

CRUD operations, SELECT statements, WHERE clauses, pattern matching with LIKE, sorting with ORDER BY, pagination with LIMIT/OFFSET, and handling NULL values correctly.

INNER, LEFT, RIGHT, and FULL OUTER JOINs, GROUP BY aggregations, HAVING filters, correlated subqueries, Common Table Expressions (CTEs), and window functions (ROW_NUMBER, RANK, DENSE_RANK).

ACID properties, transaction management (BEGIN, COMMIT, ROLLBACK), B-Tree and hash indexing mechanisms, reading EXPLAIN plans, creating database views, and backup & restore workflows.
