A light version of Northwind database for MySQL

For easier handling, the script is split into four files:

  • nw_schema - CREATE statements
  • nw_data - INSERT statements for all tables expect orderdetails
  • nw_orderdetail_data - INSERT statements for orderdetails
  • add_regions.sql - replaces null values in Region attributes by appropriate values

Differences to other versions of Northwind light

  • Tables are slightly renamed.
  • The Category and Employee tables come without the pictures.
  • Orderdetail has got a new primary key.
  • Database engine is InnoDB.
  • Foreign keys are declared.
  • Dates in SalesOrder and Employee tables are updated to more recent years.
  • A sql script is provided that adds values to region attributes in SalesOrder, Customer, and Supplier tables.

The data come from https://documentation.alphasoftware.com/pages/GettingStarted/GettingStartedTutorials/Basic%20Tutorials/Northwind/northwindMySQL.xml

The script adding region values is adapted from https://github.com/jpwhite3/northwind-SQLite3/blob/master/Northwind.Sqlite3.update.sql
