As a CS student, these videos are far superior to my uni learning material. well done

I have been modeling databases for years, to help me generate reports. I'm an on-the-job trained database builder. For the first time the concepts of all the key types are now clear to me. Thanks.

Really glad I could help.
Even if my 10 year old brother watches these, he will understand the keys for sure. Please keep going and post more videos about database.
This is easily going to be my recommendation to my friends and peers who need a recap incase of interviews. So well put together. Most people don't bother going into it with examples and caveats the way you did :)
Damn! I was so tensed about these concepts. YOU EXPLAINED IT REALLY WELL ! I just can't express my thanks to you in words !
This is fantastic content! Would be great to see your take on a process of designing a database from start to end.
I thank the algorithm gods for putting you in my feed

All of your videos have been super helpful for me. You explain stuff really well and I've had a hard time finding good resources. Would you ever consider making a video on entity relationship diagrams and crow foot notation?

Hi there, loved all you videos..Thank you .. Looking forward to more such videos.
I've worked with computing for 40+ years, much of it with relational data in one form or another. And yet, I've learned some new things from your videos. Thank you for some great content presented in a clear and useful way.
Fantastic video! Everything I've watched so far from your channel has been excellent.
I watched the normal form clarification video by you and now I am here and havent yet finished it... but I am compelled to give you my gratitude for making all things DB so simple. Thank you for that!!! 🙏🙂
Really good breakdown. I really liked the illustrated tables to make the concepts clear.
A flawless video on this topic, inspiring and exemplary. Well done.
You have a very easy-to-follow style and a concise, interesting way of explaining. You truly decomplexify this stuff. Thanks.
Smooth. Seems like you framed a new key for learners - A key to success! Great video! 💯👏
Thank you very much for this content! Very very clear and well explained. Fantastic introduction to these concepts!
Clear and precise explanation! Thank you!
purely amazing. for sure I'm gonna rewatch this .
easy to follow , very well illustrated and crisp, with real world examples and applications and with associated pros and cons too.. comfortably demistifying👍🏻👍🏻 .
A video on relationship types would be good 👍🏼 you have a great way of making a complex things seem easy. Thanks!
Perfectly explained. Thank you
Thanks so much for this video! I just started my first BI job after studying in a different field. Your videos have been super useful. :)
I learn more with this way of teaching. Thanks. Greetings from Brazil
Dang! These are wonderful and fantastic!
Another great video with great examples, thanks a lot
You are a good man. May god bless your soul. I hope this videos help a lot of people thats truggle to make good relational database designs.
Thank you so for this. Remain blessed.

Thank you so much for being able to explain these concepts in a succinct and clear manner. I wish you were my professor instead! Cheers
I like this video, calm and informative… please more like it
Really great video!
Amazing!!! very good!! thanks!
Your way of explanation is getting a new subscriber..
I have learnt something, thank you.
thanks, you're awesome. May God bless you
God bless you...i needed this for exams
I like really the simple explanations :) Very well done, this stuff isnt easy. As suggestion for more topics: Design Patterns, and possibly anti patterns? Or if databases are more your thing (I've read some of your replies) Maybe some examples how to manage a lot of data? Various DB systems, or performance tricks and why those work? Or some 'under the hood' explanations as to *why* some things work like they do? Looking forward for more video's :)
Thanks. This is pretty good and interesting
Thanks, it's very helpful to understand
Thanks for this great bunch of well put together Information. For intelligent keys I have three rules I follow. - only use it, if there is a real (and known) value in the usage of the ID later - only use it, if you can‘t achieve this value on a better way (e.g. no suitable field in a given database available) - only use inherent and unalterable information in this id (as you mentioned e.g. date of birth.) If you have to use this method with a changable information, try to make it an unalterable property. E.g. if you put the information in a materialnumber if you buy it or manufacture it (m-123, b-739…), think of creating a new dataset when this changes (like a buy and a manufacture version) but keep in mind that you might have to maintain both datasets or think of setting an expired flag on the old one. As you can see this almost always opens a can of worms.
This is a great video, I could understand a lot of things that I was seeing and never asked before because I thought they were that way at random. I would like to see more videos on DAX as I find it challenging but I have the conspiracy theory that giving trainings on DAX can infringe copyright somehow. .The complex thing about DAX is how DAX behaves depending on the context of where it's used within Power BI and it's differences from regular Excel Power Pivot DAX models
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Very well explained
OMG! I finally found a great video explaining this. There are so many videos that they are far less effective.
Awesome job!
thank you very much...superb stuff
I teach online classes on Cybersecurity and my students often get tripped up by these concepts. I have reviewed a lot of videos and this is by far the best one I have seen. Keep it up!
Thank you very much!
Brilliant! Well said!

Thank you very much for explaining it in such beautiful way, waiting for your next videos and also can you please make a video on difference between model and schema, I've gone through many websites but unable to grasp the difference.i strongly believe u can decomplexify. Once again thanks for providing amazing content.

Thanks! Actually my background is in business / systems analysis, translating user requirements into solutions. Just purely by chance, I got assigned to a lot of "data" projects and ended up specializing, without ever really intending to, in data modelling and in writing extract/transform/load (ETL) functional specs - especially in the context of data warehouses. There's a side of me that's very logical and precise and also very focused on communicating meanings clearly, all of which maybe accounts for why I find database design to be an interesting pursuit (& also why I like the challenge of finding ways to explain the concepts to others!)
a hero to all cs students
So good!\
More videos pleaaase!!!!
very usefull
Your last Intelligent Key example is basically national identity number in Poland called PESEL :)
14:04 hmm niice example (of caution with surrogate keys)
This man is single handedly saving my exam mark lol
Good primary keys are FUSSI: Familiar Unique Stable Simple Irreducible
can you make a video on different authorization in a database, on the basis of the work the user does. This confuses me when using an orm for my project. New to this and trying to understand more. Great video 👍.
Wow !
@22:54 - it's probably fair to say that intelligent keys are those most likely to get printed on documents or displayed in emails. They are much easier to read out or reference by humans when making phone calls and so on.
hi, the video was very helpful. Btw, i'm not sure if i understood well the difference between superkeys and composite keys. Superkeys are a type of composite keys that can consist also of one attribute while the other must be 2+?
please add a video on identifiable relationship & non-identifiable relatioship
