Structured Query Language (SQL)

wikibooks: Structured Query Language

  • Publisher               : Wikibooks is a Wikimedia project for collaboratively writing open-content textbooks
  • Author                   : The Community
  • Book Description  :

This Wikibook introduces the programming language SQL as defined by ISO/IEC. The standard — similar to most standard publications — is quite technical and neither easy to read nor understand. There is therefore a demand for a text document explaining the key features of the language. That is what this wikibook strives to do: present a readable, understandable introduction for everyone interested in the topic.

Manuals and white papers by database vendors are mainly focused on technical aspects of their product. As they want to set themselves apart from each other, they tend to emphasize those aspects which go beyond the SQL standard and the products from other vendors. This is contrary to the wikibooks approach: we want to emphasize the common aspects.

The main audience of this wikibook is, therefore, people who want to learn the language, either as a beginner or for someone with existing knowledge and some degree of experience looking for a recapitulation.
