About the Course

Back-end developers write applications that end-users use to interact with databases. Some common tasks that end-users carry out using these applications include storing, searching, extracting and manipulating data. Therefore, it’s essential that all back-end developers possess strong knowledge and experience with how databases work. In this course, you’ll receive an introduction to databases and explore the different ways in which they can be used to store and manage data. You’ll also learn to distinguish between different types of database management systems. You’ll then practice basic creation and data selection tasks with the use of Structured Query Language (SQL) commands. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to: - Demonstrate a working knowledge of the concepts and principles that underpin how databases work - Identify and explain the different types of core technology and management systems used in databases - Identify and interpret basic SQL statements and commands - Manipulate records in a database with the use of SQL statements and commands - Outline alternatives to SQL - and plan and design a simple relational database system You’ll also gain experience with the following: - Fundamental concepts in database - Basic MySQL syntax and commands - Database management systems - Relational databases...

It was a informative and precise course with sufficient labs to get hands on.

I found Normalization is pretty tricky to implement. More detailed readings shall help me improve and gain confidence.

They do not teach Databases and SQL anywhere like here. Meta sure does Software Engineering very differently. If you want to be the best, I guess you ought to learn from the best.

I thought the course was free until I got to the end of first module. Like I said, I'm a full time student and on top of that I have 7 children that I need to take care of and right now I don't have a job so I can't pay for this course. It would help me out a lot if I can continue this course for free. Thank you!

The course did not cover natural joins or any interesting usage of aggregation functions, which are essential for SQL queries in real-world apps.
