SQL Data Types










Tipe data kolom menentukan nilai apa yang dapat dimiliki kolom: integer, karakter, uang, tanggal dan waktu, biner, dan seterusnya.


Tipe Data SQL

Setiap kolom dalam tabel database harus memiliki nama dan tipe data.

Pengembang SQL harus memutuskan tipe data apa yang akan disimpan di dalam setiap kolom saat membuat tabel. Tipe data adalah pedoman bagi SQL untuk memahami tipe data apa yang diharapkan di dalam setiap kolom, dan juga mengidentifikasi bagaimana SQL akan berinteraksi dengan data yang disimpan.

Catatan: Tipe data mungkin memiliki nama yang berbeda di database yang berbeda. Dan meskipun namanya sama, ukuran dan detail lainnya mungkin berbeda! Selalu periksa dokumentasinya!


Jenis Data MySQL (Versi 8.0)

Di MySQL ada tiga tipe data utama: string, numerik, serta tanggal dan waktu.

Tipe data string:

Data typeDescription
CHAR(size)A FIXED length string (can contain letters, numbers, and special characters). The size parameter specifies the column length in characters - can be from 0 to 255. Default is 1
VARCHAR(size)A VARIABLE length string (can contain letters, numbers, and special characters). The size parameter specifies the maximum column length in characters - can be from 0 to 65535
BINARY(size)Equal to CHAR(), but stores binary byte strings. The size parameter specifies the column length in bytes. Default is 1
VARBINARY(size)Equal to VARCHAR(), but stores binary byte strings. The size parameter specifies the maximum column length in bytes.
TINYBLOBFor BLOBs (Binary Large OBjects). Max length: 255 bytes
TINYTEXTHolds a string with a maximum length of 255 characters
TEXT(size)Holds a string with a maximum length of 65,535 bytes
BLOB(size)For BLOBs (Binary Large OBjects). Holds up to 65,535 bytes of data
MEDIUMTEXTHolds a string with a maximum length of 16,777,215 characters
MEDIUMBLOBFor BLOBs (Binary Large OBjects). Holds up to 16,777,215 bytes of data
LONGTEXTHolds a string with a maximum length of 4,294,967,295 characters
LONGBLOBFor BLOBs (Binary Large OBjects). Holds up to 4,294,967,295 bytes of data
ENUM(val1, val2, val3, ...)A string object that can have only one value, chosen from a list of possible values. You can list up to 65535 values in an ENUM list. If a value is inserted that is not in the list, a blank value will be inserted. The values are sorted in the order you enter them
SET(val1, val2, val3, ...)A string object that can have 0 or more values, chosen from a list of possible values. You can list up to 64 values in a SET list

Tipe data numerik:

Data typeDescription
BIT(size)A bit-value type. The number of bits per value is specified in size. The size parameter can hold a value from 1 to 64. The default value for size is 1.
TINYINT(size)A very small integer. Signed range is from -128 to 127. Unsigned range is from 0 to 255. The size parameter specifies the maximum display width (which is 255)
BOOLZero is considered as false, nonzero values are considered as true.
BOOLEANEqual to BOOL
SMALLINT(size)A small integer. Signed range is from -32768 to 32767. Unsigned range is from 0 to 65535. The size parameter specifies the maximum display width (which is 255)
MEDIUMINT(size)A medium integer. Signed range is from -8388608 to 8388607. Unsigned range is from 0 to 16777215. The size parameter specifies the maximum display width (which is 255)
INT(size)A medium integer. Signed range is from -2147483648 to 2147483647. Unsigned range is from 0 to 4294967295. The size parameter specifies the maximum display width (which is 255)
INTEGER(size)Equal to INT(size)
BIGINT(size)A large integer. Signed range is from -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807. Unsigned range is from 0 to 18446744073709551615. The size parameter specifies the maximum display width (which is 255)
FLOAT(sized)A floating point number. The total number of digits is specified in size. The number of digits after the decimal point is specified in the d parameter. This syntax is deprecated in MySQL 8.0.17, and it will be removed in future MySQL versions
FLOAT(p)A floating point number. MySQL uses the p value to determine whether to use FLOAT or DOUBLE for the resulting data type. If p is from 0 to 24, the data type becomes FLOAT(). If p is from 25 to 53, the data type becomes DOUBLE()
DOUBLE(sized)A normal-size floating point number. The total number of digits is specified in size. The number of digits after the decimal point is specified in the d parameter
DOUBLE PRECISION(sized) 
DECIMAL(sized)An exact fixed-point number. The total number of digits is specified in size. The number of digits after the decimal point is specified in the d parameter. The maximum number for size is 65. The maximum number for d is 30. The default value for size is 10. The default value for d is 0.
DEC(sized)Equal to DECIMAL(size,d)

Catatan: Semua tipe data numerik mungkin memiliki opsi tambahan: UNSIGNED atau ZEROFILL. Jika Anda menambahkan opsi UNSIGNED, MySQL tidak mengizinkan nilai negatif untuk kolom tersebut. Jika Anda menambahkan opsi ZEROFILL, MySQL secara otomatis juga menambahkan atribut UNSIGNED ke kolom.

Tipe data Tanggal dan Waktu:

Data typeDescription
DATEA date. Format: YYYY-MM-DD. The supported range is from '1000-01-01' to '9999-12-31'
DATETIME(fsp)A date and time combination. Format: YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss. The supported range is from '1000-01-01 00:00:00' to '9999-12-31 23:59:59'. Adding DEFAULT and ON UPDATE in the column definition to get automatic initialization and updating to the current date and time
TIMESTAMP(fsp)A timestamp. TIMESTAMP values are stored as the number of seconds since the Unix epoch ('1970-01-01 00:00:00' UTC). Format: YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss. The supported range is from '1970-01-01 00:00:01' UTC to '2038-01-09 03:14:07' UTC. Automatic initialization and updating to the current date and time can be specified using DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP and ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in the column definition
TIME(fsp)A time. Format: hh:mm:ss. The supported range is from '-838:59:59' to '838:59:59'
YEARA year in four-digit format. Values allowed in four-digit format: 1901 to 2155, and 0000.
MySQL 8.0 does not support year in two-digit format.
