Definitely Sonic Adventure. But I’ll also name a gem no one else is going to mention:

Sounds like it’s not really SQL as a query language but rather the whole database paradigm that’s the problem here.

Look into noSQL databases and their respective drivers. They often use JSON-like syntax and are more likely to be seamlessly integrated with whatever programming language you’re using.

If a search engine won’t point you in the right direction I’d suggest having a look at MongoDB, which is well documented and fairly accessible to mess around with.

There is a reason for it: The manufacturing industry is really conservative when it comes to software. Solidworks has been the industry standard for a long time and that prompts adoption the same way Adobe products have been the standard for the visual creative industry.

Solidworks is whitout a doubt the most powerful suite of CAD tools available if money is of no concern. With licenses for the full suite totaling near $100k. They were also the first to seamlessly integrate injection moulding simulation simulation workflows for designing plastic parts.

All of this is hardly relevant for the hobbyist or maker comunities, but it does explain why so many people in the industry tend to touch Solidworks at some point in time.
