You’ve covered a lot of ground in this video course about databases, SQLite, SQL, and SQLAlchemy! You’ve used these tools to move data contained in flat files to an SQLite database, access the data with SQL and SQLAlchemy, and provide that data through a web server.
In this video course, you’ve learned:
- Why a SQLite database can be a compelling alternative to flat-file data storage
- How to normalize data to reduce data redundancy and increase data integrity
- How to use SQLAlchemy to work with databases in an object-oriented manner
- How to build a web application to serve a database to multiple users
Working with databases is a powerful abstraction for working with data that adds significant functionality to your Python programs and allows you to ask interesting questions of your data.
If you’d like to learn more about the concepts in this course, then check out:

Your tutorials are as interesting as your talks on the Podcast, thanks for this course. My #1 take away is, that I shouldn’t had to be so hard on myself for not finding SQL interesting, ORM could have saved me.
