The SELECT query retrieves data from a single table at a time. A MySQL database schema can contain multiple tables. We have to join tables to obtain related information from multiple tables. Joining tables is combining multiple tables when it is necessary to obtain data that is stored in multiple tables. Tables can be joined together using a SELECT statement which retrieves data from more than one table at a time.
