In this course, you'll get an in-depth look at the SQL SELECT statement and its main clauses. The course focuses on big data SQL engines Apache Hive and Apache Impala, but most of the information is applicable to SQL with traditional RDBMs as well; the instructor explicitly addresses differences for MySQL and PostgreSQL.

TOP REVIEWS FROM ANALYZING BIG DATA WITH SQL
A great course to go over the basic SQL. However, this course doesn't go cover Subquery concept :(
This course helped me a great deal for a job interview as well as for all future querying with Impala and Hive
Great course. Nice assignment at the end.
Maybe you could add a couple of more assignments.
Brilliant course, one of the best I have done on Coursera! The teaching is phenomenal - thanks guys!
