Non-Equi join in SQL Server sounds like something abstract (and fancy), but it’s not so abstract (and fancy) at all. The same stands for equi joins. After reading this article, I hope you’ll agree on that with me. Today’ I’ll try to explain what they are and when you should use them. So, let’s start.
In this 28th article for SQL Server Always On Availability Group series, we explore the high-availability for the SQL Server PolyBase(SSB) external tables using AG groups.
In this article, we will learn the Delayed Durability feature that helps to improve transaction log file write throughput in SQL Server.
In this article, I am going to demonstrate how we can identify the unused tables of a given SQL Database. As a database administrator, we must maintain the tables and objects of the SQL Database. In my organization, when we add a new column or change the data type of a column, we export the […]
In this article, we are going to learn how we can update and delete data using Delete and Update statements. In my previous articles, we have learned how we can insert data using INSERT statement, and sort and filter data using WHERE and ORDER BY statements.

This article talks about test-driven database hotfix development using a very productive database testing framework called tSQLt applying the same SQL unit test based approach.
In this article, I am going to cover in detail working with databases in Python using Pandas and SQLAlchemy. This is a part of the series Learn Pandas in Python where I talk about the various techniques to work with the Pandas module in Python.
In this article, I am going to demonstrate how to connect to databases using a pandas dataframe object. Pandas in Python uses a module known as SQLAlchemy to connect to various databases and perform database operations. In the previous article in this series “Learn Pandas in Python”, I have explained how to get up and […]
In this article, we are going to work on setting up your local development environment for creating serverless applications using the AWS SAM CLI.
