I am now beginning to learn SQL and am looking for a free or very cheap service in which I can host small databases and execute commands for learning purposes. Also, I want to start learning to manipulate SQL data directly in R. Does anyone know of a service like this?






sql r web-services

    Try running them locally? Probably not the answer you wanted to hear, but perhaps doing things this way could provide for a better learning experience. Consider just grabbing a tabular dataset from somewhere like Kaggle, design an SQL schema for it, and then just store and query it locally

  • Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure have free tiers for one year. But, as @12b345b6b78 noted, it's super possible to run databases on your workstation regardless of platform.

    The RSQLite package on CRAN may be the easiest way to start studying SQL from R locally. The vignette should help you decide if it is suitable for your requirements.

  • The sqldf package is good for learning SQL. You don't have to set up a database at all but can just run SQL statements immediately using data frames as the tables so you can start playing around with SQL immediately.
