SQL DML Commands


1. Login in to the mysql client using the login name and password provided by your instructor (if
not already logged in).

2. View the existing databases that the MySQL Server is maintaining.

SHOW DATABASES;

3. Utilize the photo_album database.

USE photo_album;
---- If Need be, recreate the database and load the SQL data
in that will be used for this lab
CREATE DATABASE photo_album;
SOURCE /tmp/photo_album.sql;

4. Search the customers records for the customer with the following e-mail address:
hollywood@truedog.com

SELECT * FROM customers WHERE email_customer ='hollywood@truedog.com'\G

5. Search the logins records for logins associated with the customer identified in step 4.

SELECT * FROM logins WHERE email_customer ='hollywood@truedog.com';

6. In the customers table, update the customers e-mail address, identified in step 4, to
howleewood@truedog.com.

UPDATE customers SET email_customer = 'howleewood@truedog.com'
WHERE email_customer = 'hollywood@truedog.com';

7. Review the customers records to see if the change (from step 6) took place. If the update did
not take place, reissue the statement in step 6 to ensure the change takes place?

SELECT * FROM customers WHERE email_customer ='howleewood@truedog.com'\G

8. Review the logins table to see if the e-mails associated with the customer in step 6 were also
changed. If the e-mail associated with that customer were also changed in the logins table,
why?

SELECT * FROM logins WHERE email_customer ='howleewood@truedog.com'\G

Storage Engine Breakdown

The following diagram represents a simplified view of the MySQL server and its interaction with the  storage engines. The following properties are storage engine dependant: • Storage Medium – Each table uses its own method of storing the data it contains. • Transactional Capabilities – Certain storage engines handle transactional processing which ensures that integrity of a database is maintained during the processing of multiple SQL statements.

Outer Joins

Whereas an INNER JOIN will find combinations of matching rows from joined tables, the OUTER JOIN also finds the instances where a row in one table has no match in another table. An OUTER JOIN find matches (just like an INNER JOIN), but also identifies mismatches. Two forms of outer joins are LEFT JOIN and RIGHT JOIN . These do not use the comma separator or the INNER JOIN keywords. They each answer the same kinds of questions, but differ slightly in their syntax. That is a LEFT JOIN can always be re-written into a equivalent RIGHT JOIN. (In the following sections, the terms left table and right table refer to the tables named first and second in the FROM clause, respectively.)  Left Outer Join A left join is a type of outer join, written using the LEFT JOIN keywords. A left join treats the left table (the first one named) as a reference table and produces output for each row selected from it, whether or not the row is matched by rows in the right table. Like a join w...
