  3. Why MySQL is not case sensitive?
SQL keywords are by default set to case insensitive that means that the keywords are allowed to be used in lower or upper case. The names of the tables and columns specification are set to case insensitive on the SQL database server, however, it can be enabled and disabled by configuring the settings in SQL.


Is SQL like case sensitive?

LIKE performs case-insensitive substring matches if the collation for the expression and pattern is case-insensitive.

How do you make a SQL query not case sensitive?

Case insensitive SQL SELECT: Use upper or lower functions select * from users where lower(first_name) = 'fred'; As you can see, the pattern is to make the field you're searching into uppercase or lowercase, and then make your search string also be uppercase or lowercase to match the SQL function you've used.

Why MySQL is not case sensitive?

Table names are stored in lowercase on disk and name comparisons are not case-sensitive. MySQL converts all table names to lowercase on storage and lookup. This behavior also applies to database names and table aliases.
