In the previous two articles in this series, you learned about SELECT and INSERT, two important data manipulation language (DML) statements in MySQL. In this article, I focus on the UPDATE statement, another valuable DML statement in MySQL.
For a development team, SQL Backup provides a simple way to restore development or test databases, if required, while minimizing the tedium of the task of taking, managing, and restoring the backups. We can generate the required backup commands in the GUI and then use them to construct a SQL script that backs up all the required databases. We can even use the backup commands in a beforeMigrate SQL callback, in Flyway, to make sure the current version is safely backed up before we run migration.
In this article, you will learn how to configure an RDS database for connections from client tools.
As our organizations grow, they may add new data stores. That might not be the best decision for staff as the amount of knowledge they need grows. Steve notes that you might seek to limit the number of technologies you support.
Learn about SQL Server triggers and how to use them for inserts, updates, and deletes on a table, along with step-by-step examples.
Flyway Desktop is the newest way to automate database deployments. In this brand new course Kathi Kellenberger provides an overview of DevOps, including definitions, tools, and demos of some of the advanced features available in Flyway Desktop.
Steve is challenging himself to do better, which means he might not hit his goals.
This article shows how you can query your database files to get metadata about them and use that to get the reads, writes, and other IO statistics.
Learn how to refresh a Power BI dataset by integrating Power Automate into the report.
Sometimes we want to check whether it is possible to run a Flyway migration without error, but not actually make the changes. We might just need to 'sanity test' the performance of a migration on the Staging server, for example. By using a placeholder 'switch' to trigger a SQL Exception, we can get Flyway to roll-back its transaction, and therefore the migration, on demand.
