What is Oracle SQL?

SQL stands for Structured Query Language—the language developers use to interact with databases to create, read, update, and delete database records and manage other aspects of those databases. ANSI created the standard for SQL. Many database vendors, like Oracle, expand on this standard to create their version of the language. Oracle SQL is compliant with ANSI SQL standards, with features designed specifically for the Oracle database management system. This RDBMS was released as the first commercially available relational database management system in 1977 and holds the top market share worldwide for relational database management systems. Oracle SQL extends the SQL standard with a procedural language PL/SQL and adds the ability to use the Java programming language.

What careers use Oracle SQL?

Having Oracle SQL skills can add value to many careers. The most obvious is being a database administrator in enterprises that use the Oracle database management system. But SQL dialects are pretty similar, and knowledge of Oracle SQL can apply to many types of relational databases and doesn't limit you to Oracle. Database developers also use Oracle SQL all day long to create new databases and table structures. Most applications require a database to function, so software engineers and web developers also use Oracle SQL frequently. Data scientists must access data to create machine learning models and find trends, and a lot of this data will get stored in databases that require a knowledge of SQL to retrieve and transform. Business analysts also use Oracle SQL to generate reports that help businesses get to their next stage.

What skills should I have before learning Oracle SQL?

There are no prerequisites to learning Oracle SQL. Oracle SQL has a simpler syntax than many standard programming languages and reads almost like English. Most people can understand what a SQL query is trying to do before they even know the language. All you need is an interest in the language and a commitment to learning. That said, some things could help with your Oracle SQL education if you are already familiar with them. If you are familiar with Excel spreadsheets and understand how columns and rows work, you can apply that knowledge to Oracle database tables. It also helps to know at least the concepts of how a relational database management system works. Also, if you already know a programming language, that will help learn Oracle's extended features like PL/SQL.

Well structured course, easy to follow

By Phuoc Tran on 3/20/2024

Easy to understand The theory session is hard for people who are not good in English, it's better to have more demonstrations and texts, so that I can understand it easier. The quiz is just 3 questions, please add more to help us understand more in your lesson.

By Carlos Antonio Hernández Reyna on 3/2/2023

Hasta el momento, puedo considerar una buena elección, ya que el curso va más enfocado a lo practico. Y desde mi punto de vista, para aprender, lo mejor es llevar acabo la practica.

By Salomão Machado D Abadia on 5/22/2022

The course its very good, however it's very old. The operational system he uses it's still 6.6 Oracle Linux, and this make you recieve error when try to run the preconfigure oracle install yum package because the yum SSL on Oracle Linux 6.6 its so old that cant comunicate with oracle yum repository. I havent succeded yet to get the rac install, and its always version related problem.

By Kay Liew on 10/4/2021

Haven't been touching Oracle RAC for years, this is great refreshment and offering a different ways of doing things. Hope to see similar course from the instructor on latest version.
