| 微软 SQL Server 自带了一些示例数据库,可用于练习和测试。也可作为自己数据库设计时的参考。这些示例数据库开源在了 GitHub,可在 Microsoft/sql-server-samples 查看和下载。 但因为 SQL 语法略有出入,这些数据库并不能直接通过其中的 SQL 文件来安装导入。 社区能找到一些转换好的版本,比如这个 AdventureWorks的 MySQL 版本,这个 NorthWind 的 MySQL 版本。MySQL 其实有自己的示例数据库, 示例数据库资源在官网 Other MySQL Documentation 中 Example Databases 部分有提供一些示例数据库资源和相应的获取地址。 导入导入是通过执行相应的  $ mysql -u <user_name> -p < ./employees.sql然后等待其执行完成。 执行结果:$ mysql -u wayou -p < ./employees.sql
