4.  Multi tier model – common definition  Multi tier model – development with SQL-Server  Integrity of data  Protection of data  Manipulation of data  Sample application for reusability of elements  Microsoft Access  Reporting Services

5.  Multi layered application development mean segregation of the application and it‘s business logic in multiple logical units  A multi tier application has at least two separated layers:  data layer (resource layer) exclusively for storage of data. No direct access to data is allowed!  Business logic (domain logic) Processing data and calculation of information  User Interface (representation layer) Visualization of data and input processing  A multi tier application is not branded by it‘s distribution on multiple servers but by segregation of each component!

7. data Business Layer (C) consistent interface between application and data Business Layer (D) Consistent objects in database which controls the access to the data. Application A - Menus - Forms - Reports - Procedures/ Functions Application B - Menus - Forms - Reports - Procedures/ Functions Application C - Menus - Forms - Reports - Procedures/ Functions

8. Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word.NET, Internet browser, … external libraries and customized modules Stored ProceduresFunctions Views data G U I Business data

9.  Integrity of data is highest priority  controlled access to data is required!  integrity of data should not be controlled by any application!  reusability of data by multiple applications  unique access layer to all applications  controlled access to resources by standardized access layers

10.  An application has to support requirements of multiple customers or business units  Segregation of tasks within the development process  application development in a team  experts for database development (i.e. SQL Server, Ora…)  experts for.NET, VB, BI, …  Multi Tier Elements can be implemented in a Microsoft SQL Server database by usage of schemes!

11.  a schema is a unique namespace independent from any user who created it. This functionality has been implemented first time in Microsoft SQL Server 2005.  a schema is a container for objects.  the ownership of schemes and securable elements can be transferred.  objects can be moved between schemes.

12.  multiple database users can use a single database schema.  security administration for schemes and it‘s objects is very granular!  every schema (except of [sys]) can be the property of any database principal.

14.  Segregation of GUI / Business / Data  Separation von  system objects  application objects  customer objects  NO direct access to the data layer  data manipulation by Stored Procedures only

16.  Data layer(data model)  tables only!  segregation of data in dedicated schemas depending on their specification: (data / system data / application / …)  integrity by constraints, triggers and DRI (declarative referential integrity) => upstream business rules  no direct access for any user / application! DEMO

17.  user data layer  preparation of data from layer 1 for business purposes  Data protection (show granted data only)  Simplification of complex data model from layer 1  BASIC permissions should be SELECT and EXECUTE DEMO

18.  Data manipulation  Data can only be manipulated by usage of „resource access“  Only EXECUTE-permission for data manipulation objects! DEMO
