Tutorial Create Your Own Database to Practice SQL

[iSpark]

Everyone has a different style of learning, but one thing we all need is SQL hands-on practice. It is one thing to read about SELECT statements, JOINS, and GROUP BY clauses, but it is an entirely different experience to use them in queries and see the results.

Why You Need Your Own Database for Practice​

When you have your own database, you get the freedom to customize it however you want, from the table structure to the actual data it houses. You can create real-world scenarios tailored to your learning objectives. Your data stays with you, and you may explore and even make mistakes, without any judgment or fear of breaking something.

Plus, the ability to stimulate real-world scenarios allows you to practice SQL for job-specific conditions, making you better prepared for the professional world. Looking for a job in e-commerce? Set up your database with an order table, a customer table, and a product table. Interested in a career in finance? Great! Create a table for accounts receivable and another for accounts payable. The flexibility in creating your own database is unmatched by other ways to practice SQL.

If setting up a database sounds intimidating to you, don’t worry! It is very simple in practice. Different databases have different nuances. We won’t spend time here explaining them, but you can learn more about some of the most popular databases in 2023 in this article.
