Project : Implement SQL-RDBMS from Scratch in C/C++

🌟 **Course Title**: Project Development in C/C++: Implement a SQL-RDBMS from Scratch 🚀 **Headline**: Dive Deep into System Programming & Database Design - Build Your Own PostgreSQL Clone! --- **Course Overview**: 🎓 **Project: Implement SQL-RDBMS from Scratch in C/C++** **29 DEC 2023 - Under Development** Are you ready to peel back the layers of complexity and uncover the inner workings of Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS)? If your SQL journey has been confined to query execution, it's time to elevate your game. This course is designed for developers who are eager to understand and implement the internal design and architecture of RDBMSs from the ground up using C/C++. --- **What You Will Learn**: 🔍 - **Internals of RDBMS**: Explore the intricate design of RDBMSs, understanding how they process your SQL commands seamlessly. - **Data Structures & Algorithms**: Gain hands-on experience with the data structures and algorithms critical to the functioning of an RDBMS. - **SQL Parser**: Parse SQL statements to understand and execute them effectively. - **B+ Trees**: Implement B+ Trees for efficient data retrieval, insertion, and maintenance. - **Query Execution Plan**: Learn how to execute complex SQL queries step by step. --- **Course Breakdown**: 📚 First Course (Currently Active)
We will start by developing a basic working RDBMS (PostgreSQL clone) that can handle fundamental SQL operations such as `SELECT`, `CREATE`, `INSERT`, and `DELETE`. As we progress, we'll enhance our system to support advanced features like Aggregate functions, Joins, `WHERE` and `GROUP BY` clauses, and Nested Queries. This initial implementation will operate in RAM, with data persisting only while the application is running. --- **What's Next?**: 🚀 Sequel Course (Upcoming)
In the second phase of this course, we will take our RDBMS to the next level by implementing disk-based persistent storage, akin to how real RDBMSs function. We will also delve into more complex aspects such as Concurrent Readers/Writers and Write-Ahead-Logging (WAL). The journey doesn't end there; we will explore Transactions, DB Update Hooks, and much more. --- **For the Aspiring Developer**: 💡 Talk to Your Prof
