Outerjoins

Outerjoins in practice

  • A query navigates between Entities via Relationships

  • Outerjoins avoid dropping entities with no related entities across a relationship>

E.g., List book titles and authors

  • book join author: drops books with unknown authors.

  • book left join author: keeps books with unknown authors.
