D-3 vi UniData SQL Commands Reference UniData SQL Commands This chapter provides complete descriptions of all commands in the UniData imple- mentation of Structured Query Language (SQL). UniData SQL commands can be entered from the sql prompt or by encoding a series of SQL statements in an ASCII text file (UniData SQL script) with your system editor. You can then execute the script from the operating system prompt. This provides the capability of reusing a series of UniData SQL statements. 1-1 Elements of Syntax Statements This reference manual uses a common method for stating syntax for UniData commands. The syntax statement includes the command name, required arguments, and options that you can use with the command. Italics represents a variable that you can replace with any valid option. The following figure illustrates the elements of a syntax statement. command names square brackets indicate appear in boldface an optional argument no brackets or braces a vertical line indicates that indicates a required you may choose between argument the given arguments COMMAND required [option] [option1 | option2] {option1 | option2} required... "string" quotation marks must enclose a literal string braces indicate that you an ellipsis indicates that must choose between you may enter more than the given arguments one argument 1-2 UniData SQL Commands Reference Elements of UniData SQL Commands Summary Data Definition Language (DDL) Data definition language is also called “schema definition.” It uses table, indexing, view, and subtable commands. Table Commands: CREATE TABLE ALTER TABLE DROP TABLE Indexing Commands: CREATE INDEX DROP INDEX View Commands: CREATE VIEW DROP VIEW Subtable Commands: CREATE SUBTABLE DROP SUBTABLE Data Control Language (DCL) Data control language is also called “connection management.” It uses privilege and transaction processing commands. 1-3 Privilege Commands: GRANT REVOKE Transaction Processing Commands: AUTO COMMIT COMMIT ROLLBACK LOCK TABLE SET DISPLAY SET TRANSACTION Data Manipulation Language (DML) INSERT SELECT UPDATE DELETE Report Commands (RPT) TTITLE BTITLE COLUMN COMPUTE BREAK CLEAR SET SHOW Supplementary Commands (SUP) SQL 1-4 UniData SQL Commands Reference EXIT QUIT LISTDICT COMO 1-5 SELECT Statement Elements * ALL DISTINCT attributes functions expressions literals FROM UNNEST NL1, NL2, NL_ALL WHERE =, !=, <, <=, >, >=, <>, !<, !> EVERY subquery NOT IS [NOT] NULL [NOT] BETWEEN [NOT] IN [NOT] INTERSECT [NOT] LIKE %, _, ..., nA, nN, nX GROUP BY HAVING UNION ORDER BY TO INTO LPTR 1-6 UniData SQL Commands Reference UniData SQL Limitations In a SELECT statement, you cannot select more than 1000 attributes. All identifiers in UniData SQL, such as table_name, view_name, attribute_name, table_label, and all variables in OLD/NEW_VALUE of the COLUMN statement can be no longer than 30 characters. A UniData SQL statement cannot exceed 49 lines. The length of a single line of a UniData SQL statement, when used interactively, cannot exceed 272 characters. A single association cannot exceed 64 attributes. A table can contain a maximum of 12 associations. SELECT statement or clause cannot contain more than 255 virtual attributes. The IN predicate cannot contain more than five operators. Each operator must be a constant. The length of each constant cannot exceed 95 characters. Within a WHERE clause, the total number of predicates and Boolean operators cannot exceed 255. The ORDER BY clause can contain no more than nine elements (attribute names, expressions, and ordinal positions). The number of tables in the FROM clause of a SELECT statement is limited to 16. However, when performing a join, a new temporary table is created internally for every two joined tables in the FROM clause. Therefore, a join can contain no more than eight join tables, whereas a nested subquery with exactly one table at every level may contain up to 16 levels. The UNNEST clause can process 10,240 values in a multivalued or multi-subvalued attribute, or in all associations

Apache Hive is data warehouse infrastructure built on top of Apache™ Hadoop® for providing data summarization, ad hoc query, and analysis of large datasets. It provides a mechanism to project structure onto the data in Hadoop and to query that data using a SQL-like language called HiveQL (HQL).

    Going OVER and Above with SQL

    Going OVER and Above with SQL Tamar E. Granor Tomorrow's Solutions, LLC Voice: 215-635-1958 Email: [email protected] The SQL 2003 standard introduced the OVER keyword that lets you apply a function to a set of records. Introduced in SQL Server 2005, this capability was extended in SQL Server 2012. The functions allow you to rank records, aggregate them in a variety of ways, put data from multiple records into a single result record, and compute and use percentiles. The set of problems they solve range from removing exact duplicates to computing running totals and moving averages to comparing data from different periods to removing outliers. In this session, we'll look at the OVER operator and the many functions you can use with it. We'll look at a variety of problems that can be solved using OVER. Going OVER and Above with SQL Over the last couple of years, I’ve been exploring aspects of SQL Server’s T-SQL implementation that aren’t included in VFP’s SQL sub-language. I first noticed the OVER keyword as an easy way to solve a problem that’s fairly complex with VFP’s SQL, getting the top N records in each of a set of groups with a single query. At the time, I noticed that OVER had other uses, but I didn’t stop to explore them. When I finally returned to see what else OVER could do, I was blown away. In recent versions of SQL Server (2012 and later), OVER provides ways to compute running totals and moving averages, to put data from several records of the same table into a single result record, to divide records into percentile groups and more.
