If you already guessed that this session is about NULL values, you're pretty smart.

But we all still struggle with them now and then.

Let's do a fast-paced refresher on NULL values. Why they are necessary, why they're causing you grief, and how to get them to work exactly the way you want. And because NULLs are as old as the ANSI SQL standard, you'll be able to apply this knowledge to most relational databases out there.

In this no-hype, no-nonsense, no-buzzword, hands-on session, I'll show you the coolest patterns in about the same amount of time it took you to read this abstract.
