Introduction to MySQL
MySQL is an open-source relational database management system. It is widely used for web applications and supports
many programming languages.
Features:
- Open-source and free.
- High performance and reliability.
- Cross-platform support.
- Large and active community.
MySQL Architecture:
MySQL has a layered architecture, with components for connection handling, query processing, optimization, and
storage engines.
Database Fundamentals:
- Data Models: Hierarchical, Network, Relational (most common for MySQL).
- Normalization: Process of structuring data to reduce redundancy (1NF, 2NF, 3NF).
Data Types:
- Numeric: INT, FLOAT, DECIMAL
- String: CHAR(10), VARCHAR(255), TEXT
- Date/Time: DATE, TIME, DATETIME
Database Structure:
- Tables: Main structure holding data
- Indexes: Improve query performance
- Views: Virtual tables based on queries
- Stored Procedures: Predefined SQL code for reuse

SELECT Statements:
- Basic: SELECT name FROM employees;
- Advanced: SELECT name FROM employees WHERE age > 30;
Joins:
- INNER JOIN: Returns records with matching values in both tables.
Example: SELECT a.name, b.salary FROM emp a INNER JOIN sal b ON a.id = b.emp_id;
Aggregate Functions:
- COUNT(*), SUM(salary), AVG(age), MIN(age), MAX(age)
- GROUP BY: SELECT department, COUNT(*) FROM emp GROUP BY department;
- HAVING: SELECT department, AVG(salary) FROM emp GROUP BY department HAVING AVG(salary) > 50000;
