Course Title: Introduction to Oracle®
Course Code: STL-0R1




     
     
Course Description: The lifeblood of the Oracle database is SQL which is the language that end users and applications use to communicate with the database. This course introduces delegates to the nuances of SQL and leaves them with a comfort in knowing how to use it to interrogate and update an Oracle database. SQL is an acronym for "Structured Query Language" and is sometimes pronounced as "sequel". This language does more than just Query though, it is used to alter the fabric of databases as well as create and update and delete records stored
within that fabric.
       
What You Will Achieve: A settled comfort in using the SQLPlus tool to interrogate an Oracle database along with rudimentary database object creation commands. The course also engenders an awareness of the multi-user and transactional aspects of databases in general and Oracle in particular.
       
Who Should Attend: Delegates embarking on their first exposure to a Relational Database ought to attend this course. Also, those that know some SQL from a Personal Computer database package would learn about SQL in the bigger world.
       
Pre-Requisites: Comfort with using a computer is all that is required for this course.
