Course Overview

This course will take you from idea to implementation, with the essential topics of distributed relational database covered.

The course is organized into three parts:

Gives a simple interpretation of SQL and relational algebra in preparation for the following course.
Explains the life of a read-only SQL, which includes parsing, execution, and the optimization of SQL plans.
Focuses on SQLs (including DML and DDL) that change the state of the database: how they get implemented and how to deal with the interaction of them and read-only statements.
