# employees-db-sqlite

This is an [SQLite](https://sqlite.org/) port of the 

[MySQL employees database](https://github.com/datacharmer/test_db).

Version: 1.0.6

## Where it comes from

The original data was created by Fusheng Wang and Carlo Zaniolo at Siemens

Corporate Research. The data is in XML format.

[http://timecenter.cs.aau.dk/software.htm](https://web.archive.org/web/20220120205430/http://timecenter.cs.aau.dk/software.htm)

Giuseppe Maxia made the relational schema and Patrick Crews exported the data

in relational format.

The database contains about 300,000 employee records with 2.8 million salary

entries. The export data is 167 MB, which is not huge, but heavy enough to be

non-trivial for testing.

The data was generated, and as such there are inconsistencies and subtle

problems. Rather than removing them, we decided to leave the contents

untouched, and use these issues as data cleaning exercises.

## Porting MySQL to SQLite

The MySQL data was ported using the [mysql2sqlite](https://github.com/dumblob/mysql2sqlite)

conversion tool.

## Database schema

A database schema can be found in the [MySQL documentation](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/employee/en/sakila-structure.html).

## Installation

* [download](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fracpete/employees-db-sqlite/master/employees_db-full-1.0.6.db.gz) 

  the database

* decompress it: `gunzip employees_db-full-1.0.6.db.gz`

* open/access it with your favorite database tool (eg [DBeaver](https://dbeaver.io/))

## Disclaimer

To the best of my knowledge, this data is fabricated and it does not correspond to real people. Any similarity to existing people is purely coincidental. ([source](https://web.archive.org/web/20211016111214/http://timecenter.cs.aau.dk/Data/employeeReadme.txt))
