SQL (Structured Query Language) is a universal language for working with data. It allows you to communicate with databases and perform various operations on data, such as creating tables, inserting records, updating values, deleting rows, and much more.

SQL is also essential for data analysis, as it enables you to extract, filter, aggregate, and transform data from multiple sources and formats. SQL skills are in high demand in many industries and roles, such as business intelligence, data science, web development, and software engineering.

Why learn SQL with SQL Server?

In this course, you will learn SQL with SQL Server, one of the most popular and powerful database platforms in the world. SQL Server is used by many leading companies and organizations, and it offers many features and tools for data storage, analysis, and management. SQL Server is also the number one database platform in terms of job opportunities. According to LinkedIn Jobs, at the time of writing this course description, SQL Server has more than 90K open jobs in the United States, which is more than double the second position, which is MySQL.
