Database System Concepts - SQL

  SQL (Structured Query Language) is THE standard DML for relational database products. The query language is based on relational algebra, but borrows from tuple relational calculus. Topics: •  the data-definition language (DDL) - creating, deleting and modifying relation   schemas •  the data-manipulation language (DML) - the query   language •  modification of relations (insert, delete,   update) •  integrity constraints (domain constraints and foreign   keys) •  creation and use of   views •  transaction   control •  application   programming Five major standards have been defined for SQL: •  SQL-86 •  SQL-89 •  SQL-92 •  SQL:1999 •  SQL:2003 Each standard is essentially a superset of the previous ones.
