[[{“value”:”Next Tuesday, November 19, at 6:30 PM (CT) the Central Texas IBM i User Group, CTXiUG, holds their final meeting of the year.
Our guest presenter is Patrick Behr, who is a COMMON North America Speaker of Merit.
His presentation is called: SQL 101 Bullet Train. And he describes it as: Hang on as we go from 0 to 300 MPH with SQL. We’ll start out slow by covering the basics of creating tables, inserting, and selecting data. We pick up speed as we discuss Constraints, Join Types, and SQL Views. We will be going at full speed when we learn how to leverage Functions, Procedures, and Db2 Services! We will bring it all back to the station as we use all our SQL skills to build a project that combines everything we’ve learned along the way.
To learn more about this online event, which is free, and to register go to the CTXiUG website.
I hope to see you all there.”}]] Read More
