How to install SQL Server & SQL Server Management Studio (SSMA)

Part 1 - Connecting to SQL Server | Text | Slides

In this video we will discuss what is a database and sql server management studio. How to connect to SQL server using sql server management studio.

Part 2 - Creating, altering and dropping a database | Text | Slides

A database can be created, altered and dropped in two ways. Either graphically using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) or using an sql query. In this video, we will learn creating, altering and dropping a database using both these approaches.

Part 3 - Creating and working with tables | Text | Slides

Database tables allow us to store data. In this video we will learn how to create tables, columns and establish primary key and foreign key constraints between the tables.

Part 4 - Default Constraint | Text | Slides

A default value for a table column can be specified using Default constraint. The specified default value is automatically used if a specific value is not provided. In this video, we will learn Default Constraint in SQL Server with examples.

Part 5 - Cascading referential integrity | Text | Slides

Cascading referential integrity constraint allows to define the actions Microsoft SQL Server should take when a user attempts to delete or update a key to which an existing foreign keys points.

Part 6 - Check Constraint | Text | Slides

CHECK constraint is used to limit the range of the values, that can be entered for a column. In this video we will discuss CHECK constraint in SQL Server with an example.

Part 7 - Identity column | Text | Slides

If a column of a table is marked as an identity column, then the values for this column are automatically generated by the database engine, when a new row is inserted into the table. In this video we will learn Identity column in SQL Server.

Part 8 - Get last generated id in sql server | Text | Slides

In SQL Server, identity column values are auto generated. We will discuss the different ways to retrieve the last generated identity value.

Part 8 - Get last generated id in sql server | Text | Slides

In SQL Server, identity column values are auto generated. We will discuss the different ways to retrieve the last generated identity value.

Part 9 - Unique key constraint in SQL Server | Text | Slides

UNIQUE constraint in SQL Server is used to enforce uniqueness of a column i.e the column shouldn't allow any duplicate values. We can add an Unique constraint through the designer or an sql query.

Part 10 - SQL Select statement | Text | Slides

As the name implies, Select statement allows us to retrieve data from a SQL server database table. If you want to select all the columns, you can use *, but for better performance use the column list, instead of using *.

Part 11 - Group By in SQL Server | Text | Slides

Group by clause is used to group a selected set of rows into a set of summary rows by the values of one or more columns or expressions. It is always used in conjunction with one or more aggregate functions.
