SQL LANGUAGE
WHAT IS SQL?
These days most of the business have moved to databases, as it has made life easier
for developing businesses. Businesses use the databases to validate and compare results for
the betterment. The language that helps the business to connect and fetch data as required
from the databases is SQL. SQL stands for Structured Query Language. This has been
considered as the standard language for the database management system.

PURPOSE OF SQL
SQL is used to satisfy various requirements
1. Allows the user to access any data in the Relational Database Management
system(RDBMS).
2. Allows to manipulate the data as required for any report
3. Modify the structure of any report fetched from the database.
4. Aggregation based on required columns of a report.
5. Allows the user to embed within other languages through libraries, modules or precompilers.
6. Gives access to the administrator to set the permissions on the tables, procedures and
views.
7. Allows the user to create views, procedures and tables as required.

SQL COMMANDS VS GUI
SQL commands or queries both do not change be it either in CLI or GUI. It is the interface
that brings difference. To make it clear we shall create table to identify the pros and cons of
both compared side by side.
