The Sakila sample database is intended to provide a standard schema that can be used for examples in books, tutorials, articles, samples, and so forth. In this book, as part 1, you will develop step by step tutorial object-oriented programming and Java GUI using NetBeans to implement the first six tables in sakila database: actor, language, film, category, film_category, and film_actor tables.
