This course will teach you how to use functions and procedures apart and together to build robust data management systems.

What you'll learn

Managing data in a complex SQL Server environment can be challenging when coding is done using standard DML queries. In this course, Integrating Functions and Procedures in SQL Server Workflows, you’ll gain the ability to use functions and procedures together in a data management environment to build robust systems. First, you’ll explore how to automate common processes using functions and procedures. Next, you’ll discover how to use transactions effectively to maintain the principles of ACID. Finally, you’ll learn how to handle typical errors in code to reduce manual intervention. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of SQL Server functions and stored procedures needed to combine them efficiently in complex data workflows.
