3. Search data:

4. Return the number of items in a group:
   

   SELECT COUNT(*) AS MyCount FROM Customers

5. Return the number of unique items in a group:
   

   SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT CompanyName) FROM Customers

6. Summarize data:
   

   SELECT CompanyName, MAX(Balance) FROM Customers GROUP BY CompanyName

7. Sort a result set in ascending order:

8. Restrict a result set to the specified number of rows:

Pseudo Columns

Some input-only fields are available in SELECT statements. These fields, called pseudo columns, do not appear as regular columns in the results, yet may be specified as part of the WHERE clause. You can use pseudo columns to access additional features from Redis.

SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE MyPseudocolumn = [MyValue];
