Right Outer Join, Full Outer Join, Cross Join
Picking up where we left off with part one of the video on SQL Joins, we need to continue on with another example of a RIGHT OUTER JOIN, and then follow up with a FULL OUTER JOIN and when you’d want to use something like that. And lastly, we wrap up with the CROSS JOIN and how that may come in handy. This is a fairly short video but it demonstrates each type of join mentioned above and why you’d want to use them. As always, if you have any questions or comments, definitely click into the article (if you’re not already there) and leave your thoughts there.

If you listened to Episode 14, Databases the SQL and you thought it was great information but it was hard to picture some of what was being discussed, then you should check out our video for SQL Joins Part 1. In this particular video tutorial, we explain the basics of an inner join, a left outer join, and a right outer join. And with this, you’ll be able to see what exactly happens when you execute the code. This is a great primer for anyone getting started with database programming as these are the building blocks to fundamental querying.
