Database Management System
• Database Management System is a collection of
  interrelated data and a set of programs to access
  those data.

• Primary Goal of DBMS- provide a way to store and
  retrieve database.

• Management of data involves both defining structure
  for storage of information and proving mechanisms
  for the manipulation of information.
Database System Applications
•   Banking
•   Airlines
•   Universities
•   Credit card transactions
•   Telecommunications
•   Finance
•   Sales
•   Manufacturing
•   Human resources
File System

• File processing system is supported by a
  conventional operating system.
• This System stores permanent records in
  various files and it needs different application
  programs to extract and Add records.
• Keeping Organizational information in a file-
  processing system has number of major
  disadvantages.
Disadvantages of File System
• Data Redundancy and Inconsistency

• Difficulty in accessing data

• Data isolation

• Integrity problems

• Security problems
View of Data

1. Data Abstraction

2. Instances

3. Schema
Data Abstraction
• For the system to be usable ,it must retrieve
  data efficiency.
• The need for efficiency has led designers to
  use complex data structures to represent data
  in the database.
• Since many database system users are not
  computer trained, developers hide the
  complexity from users through several levels
  of abstractions.
Levels of Abstraction
1. Physical Level : The lowest level of
   abstraction describes how the data are
   actually stored.
2. Logical Level : The next – higher level of
   abstraction describes what data to be stored
   in database.
3. View Level : The highest level of abstraction
   describes only a part of the entire database.
Instances and Schemas
• Database changes over time as information is
  inserted and deleted. The Collection of information
  stored in the database at a particular moment is
  called Instance of database .

• The overall design of the database is called the
  database Schema .Schemas are changed
  infrequently.
• Database system have several schemas
  partitioned according to the levels of
  abstraction.
• Physical schema describes the database
  design at physical level
• Logical schema describes the database design
  at the logical level.
• Database may have several schemas at view
  level, sometimes called Subschemas, that
  describes different views of database.
Data Models
• Structure of Database is the Data Model.

• A Collection of Conceptual tools for describing Data, Data
  Relationships, Data Semantics and consistency constraints.



The Concept of Data Model has 2 sections
1.The Entity Relationship Model
2.The Relational Model
The Entity Relationship Model
• The Entity Relationship Model ( E.R Model ) is based on the
  perception of a real world that consists of a collection of
  basic objects called Entities.

• An Entity is a thing or Object in the real world what is
  distinguishable from other objects.

• For example each person is an Entity and bank Accounts
  can be considered as Entities.

• Entities are described in the database by set of attributes.
• A relationship is an association among several
  Entities. Eg:

Rectangle which represent Entity Sets.

Eclipses which represent Attributes.

Diamonds which represent Relationship among
 Entity sets.

Lines which link attributes to Entity Sets and Entity
 Sets relationships
Relational Model
• The Relational Model uses a collection of tables to
  represent both data and the relationships among those
  data.

• Each table has Multiple Columns, Each Columns has a
  Unique name.

• The Relational Model is an Example or Record Based
  Model.

• Record Based Model is the database structured in fixed
  formats records of several types.
• Each table contains records of a particular type each
  record type defines a fixed number of files or
  attributes.

• The Relational model is at the lower level of
  Abstraction than the ER Model and then translated
  to the Relational Model
Other Data Model
• The Object Oriented Data Model is another data
  model that has seen increasing attention.

• The Object Oriented Model can be seen as
  Extending of the ER Model with notions of
  Encapsulation, Methods and Object identity.

• The Object relational Data Model combines features
  of the Object Oriented Data Model and Relational
  Data Model.
Data Base Language
• A Database system provides a data definition
  language to specify the database schedule and a
  data Manipulation languages to Express database
  queries and updates.

Data Definition Language
• A Database schema by set of definitions Expressed
  by a special language called Data Definition
  Language.
Data Manipulation Language
• Retrieval of Information stored in Database.

• Insertion of New Information in Database.

• Decision of Information from Database.

• Modification of Information stored in Database.

• Enables User to access or Manipulate data as organized
  by Appropriate Data Model.
Procedural Dml
• Requires user to specify what data and how to get
  data.

Declarative Dml
• Requires user to specify what data are needed
  without specifying how to get the data.
Database Access for Application
             Programs

• Application programs used to interact with database
  application programs written in C,C++,Cobol or Java.

• By Providing an application programs can be used to send
  DML and DDL statements.

• By Extending the Host Language syntax to embed DML calls
Database Users and User Interfaces
• There are 4 different types of databases system users :

• Navie Users are unsophisticated users who interact with the system
  invoking one of the application programs that have been written previously.

• Application programmers are computer professionals who write
  application programs

• Sophisticated users interact with the systems without writing programs.

• Specialized users are sophisticated users who write the specialized
  database applications that do not fit into the traditional data processing
  framework.
Database Administrator
• Main reason fro using DBMS is to have central control of both the
  data an the programs that access those data.

• Functions of DBA

• Schema Definition

• Storage Structure and Access method Definition

• Schema and physical organization Modification

• Routine Maintenance
