SQL is more than 50 years old, but the language is still evolving, and DuckDB is one of the most innovative databases for analytics. It's an important tool for any data analyst, data scientist, or data engineer. It's also used in DataCamp DataLab for working with CSV files (a key task in our Data Analyst, Data Scientist, and Data Engineer professional certifications).
In this session, Mehdi, a data engineer and developer advocate, introduces you to DuckDB SQL. You'll learn about the use cases, the changes to SQL syntax to make data analysis easier (no more SELECT *!), and how to include DuckDB in your analytics workflow.
