Data Integrity
• Data integrity refers to the accuracy, consistency, and reliability of data
over its entire life cycle, from creation to deletion. In other words, it
refers to the assurance that data is complete, accurate, and trustworthy.

• There are several factors that can impact data integrity, including human
error, hardware or software failure, security breaches, and data transfer
errors.

• To maintain data integrity, it is important to establish appropriate


policies and procedures, and to implement appropriate technologies, such as
encryption, backups, and access controls.

Data Integrity
There are different types of data integrity that organizations need to consider:

1. Entity integrity: This ensures that each row or record in a table is unique and
can be uniquely identified. This is typically achieved through the use of
primary keys.

2. Referential integrity: This ensures that relationships between tables are


maintained and that there are no orphaned records. This is typically achieved
through the use of foreign keys.

3. Domain integrity: This ensures that data is within acceptable ranges or values.
For example, a date field should only contain valid dates, and a numeric field
should only contain valid numbers.

4. Business integrity: This ensures that data meets business rules and
requirements. For example, a bank might have rules around minimum and maximum
account balances, or a hospital might have rules around patient data
confidentiality.

Data Integrity
• Maintaining data integrity is critical for organizations that rely on
accurate and trustworthy data to make informed decisions. Without data
integrity, organizations risk making decisions based on incomplete,
inaccurate, or unreliable data, which can lead to poor outcomes, financial
losses, and damage to reputation.

• To maintain data integrity we use Constraints, we will explain them in


the next lesson .
