Oracle example schema for MySQL

Anyone who has worked with Oracle has encountered the Oracle “hr” schema in one way or another. The Oracle example schema provides a few simple tables with example data to test out some queries or learn SQL.

So when working with MySQL, I like to have the same schema as well. Luckily, Andrei Ciobanu feels the same way and he provides a wonderful adaptation of this sample schema for MySQL on his website: HR Schema for MySQL and Maria DB.

The SQL script for the schema can be found on GitHub: nomemory/hr-schema-mysql (or in my fork: simonkrenger/hr-schema-mysql).

Thank you Andrei!
