4 Powerful SQL Querying Techniques You Must Master for Efficient Data Manipulation


SQL (Structured Query Language) offers several advanced SQL querying techniques that allow you to effectively work with and manipulate databases in a more agile way

[{"selector":"#anim-dc122ff4-c857-4d20-9fd5-32228953556a [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0, -8.928571179351586%, 0) translate(0%, -25%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0, 0%, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

Pivot and Unpivot, SQL Subqueries, CTE (Common Table Expressions), and Dynamic SQL are some of the most useful SQL querying techniques one may use

[{"selector":"#anim-5f2316e1-39f6-4bdf-8dc3-295202f7c2ca [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0, -8.928571179351586%, 0) translate(0%, -25%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0, 0%, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

These SQL querying techniques are tools of choice in areas such as mobile usability, social and demographic sources, and algorithms of recommendation

[{"selector":"#anim-ddf7adf4-a8dd-49d3-a708-d329e5445e07 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0, -8.928571179351586%, 0) translate(0%, -25%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0, 0%, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

The PIVOT operation allows you to flip the data, where the unique values are transformed from one column to multiple columns in the resultant set

[{"selector":"#anim-d600275e-eb50-4d41-a497-feea5f458a5b [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0, -8.928571179351586%, 0) translate(0%, -25%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0, 0%, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

UNPIVOT is the opposite of PIVOT

[{"selector":"#anim-4cc3b560-2d77-4cc5-953e-4de5555f7256 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0, -8.928571179351586%, 0) translate(0%, -25%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0, 0%, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]
