Database Concepts
DATABASECONCEPTS
A Database is a collection of DATA/INFORMATION that is
organized so that it can be easily accessed, managed and
updated.
In Database, Data is organized in to rows, columns and
tables, and it is indexed to make it easier to find relevant
information. It works like a container which contains the
various objects like Tables, Queries, Reports etc. in
organized way.

WHYDO WE NEED DATABASE


 To manage large chunks of data: if size of data increases into
thousands of records, it will simply create a problem to manage.
Database can manage large amount of data.
 Accuracy: Through validation rule in database, data accuracy can
be maintained.
 Ease of updating data: With the database, we can flexibly update
the data according to our convenience. Moreover, multiple
people can also edit data at same time.
 Security of data: With databases we have security groups and
privileges to restrict access.
 Data integrity: In databases, we can be assured of accuracy and
consistency of data due to the built in integrity checks and
access controls.

Database Management System (DBMS)

 A DBMS refers to software that is responsible for storing,


maintaining and utilizing database in an efficient way.
 A Database along with DBMS software is called Database
System.
 Example of DBMS software are Oracle, MS SQL Server, MS
Access, Paradox, DB2 and MySQL etc.
 My SQL is open source and freeware DBMS.

Advantages of Database System


 Databases reduces Redundancy
It removes duplication of data because data are kept at one place and all the
application refers to the centrally maintained database.
 Database controls Inconsistency
When two copies of the same data do not agree to each other, then it is called
Inconsistency. By controlling redundancy, the inconsistency is also controlled.
 Database facilitate Sharing of Data
Data stored in the database can be shared among several users.
 Database ensures Security
Data are protected against accidental or intentional disclosure to unauthorized
person or unauthorized modification.
 Database maintains Integrity
It enforces certain integrity rules to insure the validity or correctness of data.
For ex. A date can’t be like 31/31/2000.

Data Model-Way of data representation
Data model is a model or presentation which shows How data is organized? Or stored
in the database. A data is modeled by one of
the following given-
 Relational Data Model
In this model data is organized into Relations or Tables (i.e. Rows and Columns). A row
in a table represents a relationship of data to each other and also called a Tuple or
Record. A column is called Attribute or Field.
 Network Data Model
In this model, data is represented by collection of records and relationship among data
is shown by Links.
 Hierarchical Data Model
In this model, Records are organized as Trees. Records at top level is called Root record
And this may contains multiple directly linked
children records.
 Object Oriented Data Model
In this model, records are represented as a objects. The collection of similar types of
Object is called class.

RELATIONALDATABASE
A relational database is a collective set of multiple data sets
organized by tables, records and columns. Relational
database establish a well-defined relationship between
database tables. Tables communicate and share information,
which facilitates data searcheability, organization and
reporting.
A Relational database use Structured Query Language (SQL),
which is a standard user application that provides an easy
programming interface for database interaction.

 Relation(Table)
A Relation or Table is Matrix like structure arranged in Rows and
Columns. It has the following properties-
 Atomicity: Each column assigned a unique name and must have
Atomic (indivisible) value i.e. a value that cannot be further subdivided.
 No duplicity: No two rows of relation will be identical i.e. in any two
rows value in at least one column must be different.
All items in a column are homogeneous i.e. same data type.
 Ordering of rows and column is immaterial.
 Domain: It is collection of values from which the value is derived for
a column.
 Tuple/Entity/Record-Rows of a table are called Tuple or Record.
 Attribute/Field-Column of a table is called Attribute or Field.
 Degree-Number of columns (attributes) in a table.
 Cardinality-Number of rows (Records) in a table.

KEYS IN A DATABASE
Key plays an important role in relational database; it is used for
identifying unique rows from table & establishes relationship
among tables on need.
Types of keys in DBMS
 Primary Key – A primary key is a column or set of columns in a
table that uniquely identifies tuples (rows) in that table.
 Candidate Key –It is an attribute or a set of attributes or keys
participating for Primary Key, to uniquely identify each record in
that table.
 Alternate Key – Out of all candidate keys, only one gets selected
as primary key, remaining keys are known as alternate or
secondary keys.
 Foreign Key – Foreign keys are the columns of a table that points
to the primary key of another table. They act as a cross-reference
betweentables.
