    DBMS
    Prepared by : Darwin N. Desamparado
    Points to
    Review
    A database management system (DBMS) is software that supports
    managementof large collections of data.

    A DBMS provides ecient data access, data independence,


    data integrity, security, quick application development, support for
    concurrent access, and recovery from system failures.

    Storing data in a DBMS versus storing it in operating system files has


    many advantages.
    Using a DBMS provides the user with data independence, efficient data
    access, automatic data integrity, and security.

    The structure of the data is described in terms of a data model and the
    description is called a schema. The relational model is currently the most
    popular data model.

    A DBMS distinguishes between external, conceptual, and physical schema


    and thus allows a view of the data at three levels of abstraction.
    A query language and a data manipulation language enable high-level access
    and modication of the data.A transaction is a logical unit of access to a DBMS.

    The DBMS ensures thateither all or none of a transaction's changes are


    applied to the database.

    Forperformance reasons, the DBMS processes multiple transactions


    concurrently, butensures that the result is equivalent to running the
    transactions one after the otherin some order.
    The DBMS maintains a record of all changes to the data in thesystem
    log, in order to undo partial transactions and recover from system
    crashes.

    Checkpointing is a periodic operation that can reduce the time for


    recovery froma crash.
    DBMS code is organized into several modules: the disk space manager, the
    Buffer manager, a layer that supports the abstractions of files and index
    structures, a layer that implements relational operators, and a layer that
    optimizes queries andproduces an execution plan in terms of relational
    operators.

    A database administrator (DBA) manages a DBMS for an enterprise. The DBA


    designs schemas, provide security, restores the system after a failure, and
    periodically tunes the database to meet changing user needs. Application
    programmersdevelop applications that use DBMS functionality to access and
    manipulate data,and end users invoke these applications.
    ENTITY-RELATIONSHIP MODEL
    The entity-relationship (ER) data model allows us to describe the data
    involved in a real-world enterprise in terms of objects and their relationships
    and is widely used to develop an initial database design.
    The database design process

    (1) Requirements Analysis: The very first step in designing a database


    application is to understand what data is to be stored in the database, what
    applications must be built on top of it, and what operations are most frequent
    and subject to performance requirements.

    (2) Conceptual Database Design: The information gathered in the requirements


    analysis step is used to develop a high-level description of the data to be stored
    in the database, along with the constraints that are known to hold over this data.
    Design: We must choose a DBMS to implement our database
    design, and convert the conceptual database design into a database schema in
    the data
    model of the chosen DBMS. We will only consider relational DBMSs, and
    therefore,
    the task in the logical design step is to convert an ER schema into a relational
    database
    schema. We discuss this step
