Database Management System (DBMS)


A collection of programs that enables you to store, modify, and extract information from a database.


DBMS contains information about a particular enterprise


Collection of interrelated data Set of programs to access the data An environment that is both convenient and efficient to use

Database Applications:
Banking: all transactions Airlines: reservations, schedules Universities: registration, grades Sales: customers, products, purchases Online retailers: order tracking, customized recommendations Manufacturing: production, inventory, orders, supply chain Human resources: employee records, salaries, tax deductions

Databases touch all aspects of our lives

Database Systems Vs File Systems


In the early days, database applications were built directly on top of file systems  Drawbacks of using file systems to store data:


Data redundancy and inconsistency


Multiple file formats, duplication of information in different files

Difficulty in accessing data


Need to write a new program to carry out each new task

Data isolation multiple files and formats Integrity problems


Integrity constraints (e.g. account balance > 0) become buried in program code rather than being stated explicitly Hard to add new constraints or change existing ones
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 8

Database Systems Vs File Systems Cont.




Drawbacks of using file systems (cont.)


Atomicity of updates
Failures may leave database in an inconsistent state with partial updates carried out Example: Transfer of funds from one account to another should either complete or not happen at all

Concurrent access by multiple users


Concurrent accessed needed for performance Uncontrolled concurrent accesses can lead to inconsistencies
Example: Two people reading a balance and updating it at the same time

Security problems
Hard to provide user access to some, but not all, data

Database systems offer solutions to all the above problems

6/15/2011

View of data Data Abstraction:




Physical level: describes how a record (e.g., customer) is stored. Logical level: describes data stored in database, and the relationships among the data.
type customer = record customer_id : string; customer_name : string; customer_street : string; customer_city : integer;
end; (PASCAL CODE)

View level: application programs hide details of data types. Views can also hide information (such as an employees salary) for security purposes.

Instances and Schemas


 

Similar to types and variables in programming languages Schema the logical structure of the database
Example: The database consists of information about a set of customers and accounts and the relationship between them) Analogous to type information of a variable in a program Physical schema: database design at the physical level Logical schema: database design at the logical level

Instance the actual content of the database at a particular point in time


Analogous to the value of a variable

Physical Data Independence the ability to modify the physical schema without changing the logical schema
Applications depend on the logical schema In general, the interfaces between the various levels and components should be well defined so that changes in some parts do not seriously influence others.

DBMS Languages
Data Definition Language (DDL):
Used by the DBA and database designers to specify the conceptual schema of a database. In many DBMSs, the DDL is also used to define internal and external schemas (views). In some DBMSs, separate storage definition language (SDL) and view definition language (VDL) are used to define internal and external schemas. SDL is typically realized via DBMS commands provided to the DBA and database designers
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 19

DBMS Languages
Data Manipulation Language (DDL):


Data Manipulation Language (DML):


Used to specify database retrievals and updates DML commands (data sublanguage) can be embedded in a general-purpose programming language (AKA host language), such as COBOL, C, C++, or Java. Alternatively, stand-alone DML commands can be applied directly (called a query language).

Data Manipulation Language (DML)


Language for accessing and manipulating the data organized by the appropriate data model DML also known as query language  Two classes of languages Procedural user specifies what data is required and how to get those data Declarative (nonprocedural) user specifies what data is required without specifying how to get those data  SQL is the most widely used query language

6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 22

Data Definition Language (DDL)




 

Specification notation for defining the database schema Example: create table account ( account-number char(10), balance integer) DDL compiler generates a set of tables stored in a data dictionary Data dictionary contains metadata (i.e., data about data) Database schema Data storage and definition language Specifies the storage structure and access methods used Integrity constraints Domain constraints Referential integrity (references constraint in SQL) Assertions Authorization

Transaction Management
A transaction is a collection of operations that performs a single logical function in a database application  Transaction-management component ensures that the database remains in a consistent (correct) state despite system failures (e.g., power failures and operating system crashes) and transaction failures.  Concurrency-control manager controls the interaction among the concurrent transactions, to ensure the consistency of the database.

Database users and DBA (Database Administrator)

Database users


Nave users:

- who interact with the system by invoking one of the




application programs that have been previously written. Application Programmers: - Computer professionals who write application programs. Sophisticated users - form their requests in a db query language such as SQL and submit them to a query processor. Specialized users: - Sophisticated users who write specialized db applications
- B.U.Anu Barathi 27

6/15/2011

Database users and DBA (Database Administrator)

DBA (Database Administrator)


    

DBA is a person who has central control over the system. DBA is responsible for authorizing access to the db. DBA is responsible for acquiring s/w and h/w resources. DBA is responsible for coordinating and monitoring the use of db. DBA creates original db schema by executing a set of data definition stmts in DDL.

Storage Manager


It is a pgm module that provides the interface b/w the low level data stored in the db and the app.pgms & queries submitted to the system. It translates the various DML statements into file system commands. It is responsible for storing, retrieving and updating data in the database.
- B.U.Anu Barathi 31

6/15/2011

Storage Manager



The storage manager components includes:

Authorization & Integrity Manager:  - It tests for the satisfication of integrity constraints and checks the authority of users to access data.  File Manager:  - allocation of files and disk & data structures used to represent information stored on disk.
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 32

Storage Manager
 Buffer


Manger:

- to decide what data to cache in mainmemory in orde to speed up the accessing of data.  Transaction Manager:  - db remains in a consistent state despite system failures and that concurrent transaction execution proceed without conflicting.

EntityEntity-Relationship data model




It is a high level conceptual data model that describes the structure of db in terms of entities, relationship among entities & constraints on them..

Basic Concepts of E-R Model:

- Entity

- Entity Set - Attributes - Relationship - Relationship set - Identifying Relationship


I

EntityEntity-Relationship data model


 Entity:

-It is a an object that exists in the real world.  Example: - Person, Employee, Car, Home etc..
Object with conceptual Existence - Account, loan, job etc
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 39

EntityEntity-Relationship data model


 Entity

Set: - A set of entities of the same type.  Attributes: - A set of properties that describe an entity.
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 40

EntityEntity-Relationship data model





Types of Attributes:

Simple (or) atomic vs. Composite:  - An attribute which cant be sub divided. (Eg.Age)  - An attribute which can be divided into sub parts is called  as composite attribute. Address- Apartment no. e.g.. - Street - Place - City - District Single Valued vs. Multivalued:  -An attribute having only one value (e.g.. Age,eid,sno)  - An attribute having multiple values (e.g.. Deptlocat- A dept can be located in several places)
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 41

EntityEntity-Relationship data model


 

Stored Vs Derived - Stored attribute is one that has some value


where as derived attribute is a one where its value is derived from sa. -E.g.. SA-DOB DA- Age derived from DOB. Key Attribute: - An attribute which is used to uniquely identify records. E.g.. eid, sno, dno

Design of an E-R Database Schema EThe steps involved in designing an E-R database schema are, Identify entity types and their entity sets. List out the attributes of each entity type. Relate several entities by specifyiing some relationship that exists among them. Specify some attributes of relation if any. Specify Generalization and specialization any exists. Specify Aggregation (global) if any used.

Requirements collection & Analysis


 

The db designers interview db users to understand & document their requirements. They find out data requirements (what data are stored in the db).

Conceptual Design:


Once the requirements are documented , the next step is to create conceptual schema which carried out in conceptual design Phase. It describes the structure of a db in the form of entity type, relationship among them & constraints.
- B.U.Anu Barathi 69

6/15/2011

Logical Design


The actual implementation of the db is carried out using DBMS.

Physical Design


The last phase is the internal storage structures, indexes, access paths, and file organizations for the db files are specified. In parallel with these activities, Application programs are designed and implemented as db transactions.

History of Database Systems




1950s and early 1960s:


Data processing using magnetic tapes for storage
Tapes provide only sequential access

Punched cards for input




Late 1960s and 1970s:


Hard disks allow direct access to data Network and hierarchical data models in widespread use Ted Codd defines the relational data model
Would win the ACM Turing Award for this work IBM Research begins System R prototype UC Berkeley begins Ingres prototype

High-performance (for the era) transaction processing


6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 77

History (cont.)


1980s:
Research relational prototypes evolve into commercial systems
SQL becomes industrial standard

Parallel and distributed database systems Object-oriented database systems




1990s:
Large decision support and data-mining applications Large multi-terabyte data warehouses Emergence of Web commerce

2000s:
XML and XQuery standards Automated database administration

Relational Model:
 It

uses a collection of tables to represent both data and relationships among those data. Basic Structure this model each table is called as relation. Each relation has a no. of row is called tuples and columns called as fields or attributes.
- B.U.Anu Barathi 80

 In

6/15/2011

Relational Model:
 For

an attribute, a range of permitted values can be specified. That range is called as Domain of that attribute. Age attribute Domain (Age) = {1,2100}

 E.g.. 

6/15/2011

- B.U.Anu Barathi

81

Relational Model:
A

table of n attributes must be a subset of D1*D2*.Dn Employee Relation  E.g..


Eid
1 2 3
6/15/2011

Ename
Aaa Bbb ccc

Eaddr

South street West street New


82

- B.U.Anu Barathi

Relational Model:
 To

denote the value of attribute a on second tuple, then it can be denoted as t2[a]=value.  E.g..  t2[ename]=bbb.

6/15/2011

- B.U.Anu Barathi

83

Relation schema
 It

is the description about the structure of the relation and the relation instance is the snapshot of data in the relation at a given instant in time.
E.g.. Employee_schema=(eid,ename,eaddr) Name of the schema

6/15/2011

85

Keys
 Strong 

Entity set:

The Primary key of the entity set becomes the primary key of the relation.

 Weak 

Entity Set:

The table corresponding a weak entity set includes  the attributes of the weak entity set &  primary key of the strong entity set on which the weak entity set depends.
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 86

Keys
Relationship Set: The union of the primary key of the related entity sets becomes a super key of the relation. Combined Tables: If there exists many to one relationship set from A to B, then the prim.key of A becomes the prim.key of the relation & the relation consists of the attribues of A and attributes of the relationship set.
6/15/2011 - B.U.Anu Barathi 87

Keys
Foreign Key: An attribute of a relation r1 that references relation r2 is called as foreign key attribute. Schema Diagram: A relation schema can be depicted pictorially by schema diagram,
