Database Fundamentals #4: Create a Database

Database Fundamentals #4: Create a Database

SQL Server provides multiple ways to perform most functions. In order to maximize your understanding of how SQL Server works and have as many different mechanisms as possible for getting work done, you’ll use the GUI and TSQL to learn how to create and drop databases. You can then use whichever mechanism works best for you at the moment.

Using each method, we’ll first create a database using the least amount of work possible, just so you can see how easy it is to create a database. We’ll go over how to remove databases from the system, getting rid of the database you just created. From there we’ll drill down to create another database, exploring some of the different mechanisms you can use to change how databases get created. Then, we’ll clean up behind ourselves and remove all those databases, too. Performing the actions repeatedly will help you to understand what you’re doing better and increase your retention of the information.
