1. 6 1 Chapter 6 Introduction to Structured Query Language (SQL) Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management, Sixth Edition, Rob and Coronel

2. 6 2 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel In this chapter, you will learn: The basic commands and functions of SQL How to use SQL for data administration (to create tables, indexes, and views) How to use SQL for data manipulation (to add, modify, delete, and retrieve data) How to use SQL to query a database to extract useful information

3. 6 3 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Introduction to SQL SQL functions fit into two broad categories: Data definition language –SQL includes commands to create Database objects such as tables, indexes, and views Commands to define access rights to those database objects Data manipulation language –Includes commands to insert, update, delete, and retrieve data within the database tables

4. 6 4 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Introduction to SQL ( continued ) SQL is relatively easy to learn Basic command set has a vocabulary of less than 100 words Nonprocedural language American National Standards Institute (ANSI) prescribes a standard SQL Several SQL dialects exist

5. 6 5 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel SQL Data Definition Commands

7. 6 7 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Data Definition Commands Examine the simple database model and the database tables that will form the basis for the many SQL examples Understand the data environment

8. 6 8 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel The Database Model

9. 6 9 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Creating the Database Two tasks must be completed –create the database structure –create the tables that will hold the end-user data First task –RDBMS creates the physical files that will hold the database –Tends to differ substantially from one RDBMS to another

10. 6 10 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel The Database Schema Authentication –Process through which the DBMS verifies that only registered users are able to access the database –Log on to the RDBMS using a user ID and a password created by the database administrator Schema –Group of database objects—such as tables and indexes—that are related to each other

11. 6 11 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Data Types Data type selection is usually dictated by the nature of the data and by the intended use Pay close attention to the expected use of attributes for sorting and data retrieval purposes

12. 6 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Some Common SQL Data Types

13. 6 13 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Creating Table Structures Use one line per column (attribute) definition Use spaces to line up the attribute characteristics and constraints Table and attribute names are capitalized NOT NULL specification UNIQUE specification Primary key attributes contain both a NOT NULL and a UNIQUE specification RDBMS will automatically enforce referential integrity for foreign keys Command sequence ends with a semicolon

14. 6 14 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel Other SQL Constraints NOT NULL constraint –Ensures that a column does not accept nulls UNIQUE constraint –Ensures that all values in a column are unique DEFAULT constraint –Assigns a value to an attribute when a new row is added to a table CHECK constraint –Validates data when an attribute value is entered

15. 6 15 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel CREATE TABLE Product (p_code CHAR(10), p_descript VARCHAR2(35), p_indate DATE, p_onhand SMALLINT, p_min SMALLINT, p_price NUMBER(8,2), p_discount NUMBER(4,2), v_code INTEGER CONSTRAINT v_code_fk REFERENCES Vendor(v_code), CONSTRAINT p_code_pk PRIMARY KEY (p_code));

16. 6 16 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 6 th Edition, Rob & Coronel SQL Indexes When a primary key is declared, DBMS automatically creates a unique index Often need additional indexes Using the CREATE INDEX command, SQL indexes can be created on the basis of any selected attribute Composite index –Index based on two or more attributes –Often used to prevent data duplication
