SQL syntax

You can use Structured Query Language (SQL) to query your data.

This section of the documentation provides a complete SQL syntax reference for CrateDB.

Note

For introductions to CrateDB functionality, we recommend you consult the appropriate top-level section of the documentation. The SQL syntax reference assumes a basic familiarity with the relevant parts of CrateDB.
