SQL Made Simple: Querying Data in Warehouses, Lakes, and Beyond

Step into the world of data with this beginner-friendly SQL workshop. We’ll start with the basics — writing queries to pull, filter, and combine information — and then zoom out to see the bigger picture: what’s the difference between a traditional database, a data warehouse, and a data lake (and why should you care)? By the end, you’ll not only know how to talk to your data using SQL, but also how to understand where it’s stored and how modern companies manage it.

Free and open to all, registration requested.
