How important is concepts of RDBMS (textbooks like Navathe) for being a SQL developer/administrator?

Do you think learning the fundamentals make one a better sql person?

...Your question is how important it is for someone to know the fundamentals of what they're working with?

Sounds analagous to asking "How important is a knowledge of anatomy for being a surgeion?"

This is what I mean by fundamentals of dbms. Do they really help in SQL journey?

[requinix]

That sure does look like the fundamentals of RDMSes. Plus a little more than what I would call fundamentals, but still important things that someone should know if you're looking to focus on SQL and databases specifically as a career.

Are you asking whether this course looks like it would be beneficial to you? If you're not already familiar with most of these things and/or want a formal setting to learn them then sure, it looks beneficial.

I am mildly familiar with most of the things. I didn't get how that'd help me in database administration (maybe helps in sql querying).
