Lecture 6 Packaged Data Models

This document summarizes key topics from a lecture on database systems, including prototyping database methodology, managing database projects, database schema, and three-tiered client/server database architecture. The lecture outlines prototyping methodology involving iterative development and review points. It discusses roles in database projects and using packaged and industry-specific data models. Database schema are explained as physical, conceptual, and external views. A three-tier architecture separates the user interface, application processing, and data management tiers.

CASE
■ Computer-Aided Software Engineering (CASE)–software tools providing
automated support for systems development
■ Three database features:
– Data modeling–drawing entity-relationship diagrams
– Code generation–SQL code for table creation
– Repositories–knowledge base of enterprise information

9
Packaged Data Models

■ Model components that can be purchased, customized, and


assembled into full-scale data models
■ Advantages
– Reduced development time
– Higher model quality and reliability
■ Two types:
– Universal data models
– Industry-specific data models

10
Managing Projects

■ Project–a planned undertaking of related activities to reach an objective


that has a beginning and an end
■ Involves use of review points for:
– Validation of satisfactory progress
– Step back from detail to overall view
– Renew commitment of stakeholders
■ Incremental commitment–review of systems development project after
each development phase with rejustification after each phase

11
Managing Projects: People Involved

■ Business analysts
■ Systems analysts
■ Database analysts and data modelers
■ Users
■ Programmers
■ Database architects
■ Data administrators
■ Project managers
■ Other technical experts
12
Database Schema
■ Physical Schema
– Physical structures–covered in Chapters 5 and 6
■ Conceptual Schema
– E-R models–covered in Chapters 3 and 4
■ External Schema
– User Views
– Subsets of Conceptual Schema
– Can be determined from business-function/data entity
matrices
– DBA determines schema for different users

Different people
have different
views of the
database…these
are the external
schema

The internal
schema is the
underlying
design and
implementation
