MySQL Database

MySQL Server

This artifact showcases the first SQL database server I interacted with through my studies at Kent State. This database was a part of IT-21005, a class I took in spring of this year. This project represents and important milestone in my development as a aspiring IT and systems professional by developing the base of my skills in structured data storage, query design, and the foundational concepts that support modern applications and analytics systems. Interacting with this server allowed me to explore database configuration, management, and performance considerations, while gaining hands on experience that directly applies to industry environments.

What I’ve Learned

Through this SQL database I was able to gain invaluable hands on experience with relational database management systems. By utilizing this database server, I explored concepts such as schema design, table creation, data normalization, and query optimization. This environment also provided a environment to practice database administrations tasks such as configuring backups and managing security.
