Recently someone asked me if I had a video explaining what a database was. I didn’t, but was curious. Apparently, this person wanted to learn a bit about databases as a layman, someone that isn’t technical and doesn’t want to be. They just wanted to understand the terminology.
I was about to record one, but then decided to see what was out there. Turns out, there are lots of them. Here’s a few I sent over:
Beginner Videos:
- Database Tutorial for Beginners – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wR0jg0eQsZA&vl=en
- What is SQL? – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27axs9dO7AE
If you know a bit, then maybe this one would help you differentiate: SQL vs NoSQL or MySQL vs MongoDB
A course on databases, maybe too much for most non technical people, but seemed not to bad of the couple I watched: Database Lesson #1 of 8 – Introduction to Databases

I’ve been meaning to put together an “Intro to SQL” SQL Saturday presentation together, but only lack of time has kept me from really doing it. I might just sit down and crank something out!
