1. Chapter 5 Database Processing

2. Neil uses software to query a database, but it has about 25 standard queries that don’t give him all he needs. He imports data from database into Excel where he moves, sorts, sums and averages data until he gets information he wants. It’s a pain, but it works.

4. Purpose: To organize and keep track of things Spreadsheets Keep track of only a single theme  Example: Student test scores in a course Databases Allow keeping track of multiple themes  Examples: Student grades, office visits, student email Q1: What Is the Purpose of a Database? 5-4 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

8. Hierarchy of Data Elements 5-8 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

9. Components of a Database 5-9 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall MetadataMetadata: Describes structure of database (tables, relationships, primary key, etc.) and its data such as data type (text, number, date), size, default, format, etc.

10. Relational database Database has multiple tables (one for each theme) Values in one table may relate to records in other tables Primary or Unique key Field(s) that uniquely identify a record in a table Each table must have a key Foreign key A non-primary key in one table that is related to a primary key of a different table Relationships Among Records 5-10 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

11. A column or group of columns that identifies a unique row in a table Student Number is key of Student table Every table must have a key Sometimes more than one column is needed to form a unique identifier Example: key of City table, would be a combination of City and State columns. Email_Num is key of Email Table VisitID is key of Office_Visit Table Key Special Terms 1-11 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

Read, Insert, Modify, and Delete data Four DBMS operations International standard language for processing databases Structured Query Language (SQL) INSERT INTO Student ([Student Number], [Student Name], HW1, HW2, MidTerm) VALUES (1000, ‘Franklin, Benjamin’, 90, 95, 100) Example SQL statement Processing the Database: SQL 5-19 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

20. DBMS security features to set up user accounts, passwords, permissions, processing limits PermissionsPermissions—setting data access rights for specific users or groups of users. We typically do not do it in Access database, but in network database like SQL Server Database backupDatabase backup and replication, adding structures, removing unneeded data Administering the Database 5-20 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

26. Lost-update problem Occurs when two or more transactions select same record at same time, then update it based on values first received. Each transaction is independent. Last update overwrites updates previously made by others. Multiuser Processing Considerations 5-26 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 10-5 = 510-3 = 7 5, 7 or 3?

27. 1.Process A reads customer record from file containing customer’s account balance. 1 2.Process B reads same record from same file now has its own copy. 2 3.Process A updates account balance in its copy of customer record and writes record to file. 3 4.Process B has original stale value for account balance. Updates customer’s phone number and writes customer record to file. 4 5.Process B writes stale account balance value to file, causing changes made by Process A to be lost. 5 Multi-User Processing Problem: Lost-update problem Lost-update problemLost-update problem 1-27 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.

28. Locking Prevents another user or process to change a record currently being used by another user or process. Gets only a Read-only copyGets only a Read-only copy. Preventing Lost Update Problem 5-28 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall

29. Enterprise DBMS Enterprise DBMS Processes large organizational and workgroup databases Supports many users (thousands plus) Examples: DB2, SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL Enterprise DBMS Enterprise DBMS Processes large organizational and workgroup databases Supports many users (thousands plus) Examples: DB2, SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL Personal DBMS Personal DBMS Designed for smaller, simpler database applications Supports fewer than 100 users (mostly 1–10 users) Examples: Access, dBase, FoxPro, R-Base Personal DBMS Personal DBMS Designed for smaller, simpler database applications Supports fewer than 100 users (mostly 1–10 users) Examples: Access, dBase, FoxPro, R-Base Q5: What Is the Difference Between an Enterprise DBMS and a Personal DBMS? 5-29 Copyright © 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
