3. Feature of a Database Tables: this is for the storage of information Relationships between the tables: this is mostly use by or for an organisation Keys or Indexes: this is for sorting and quick lookup through the information on a database Stored procedures or queries to read and write information to the tables There are quite a few others (like triggers that cause things to happen in response to updates and deletions, etc..

7. Advantages and disadvantage of a bank database The bank gets greater data integrity and independence from applications programs The bank Improved data access to users through use of host and query languages and also Improved data security It reduce the data entry, storage, and retrieval costs. Facilitated development of new applications program Disadvantages The bank database systems are complex, difficult, and time-consuming to design ant substantial hardware and software start-up costs If the computer is damage the database affects virtually all applications programs Extensive conversion costs in moving form a file-based system to a database system Initial training required for all programmers and users in the bank.

8. Tool and techniques of a school data base Relationship: This is the connection of the teacher with it subject and the student to the subject Record: a record is a group of fields within a table that are relevant to a specific entity. For example, in a table called student contact information, a row would likely contain fields such as: ID number, name, street address, city, telephone number etc. Field characteristic: It is used for more general text as opposed to specific information. A name or address would be in a text field, but something like school it talk most about the student Sorts and queries: A database queries is use to search for information on the database while the sorts is the arrangement of the information maybe in ascending or descending order. Form: database form is where the school encodes the data to be stored. It is also where the editing and entering of information about the student can be done on a database Relationship: This is the connection of the teacher with it subject and the student to the subject Record: a record is a group of fields within a table that are relevant to a specific entity.

9. How could the tools/techniques improve a database Productivity: this help to improve the database by making the database function Accuracy: Accurate databases rely on good input. if the data isn't accurate, it then becomes subject to errors and it's usefulness becomes increasingly less. If I have a database of prices and half are wrong, the database will eventually cause the business to lose money or overcharge. Usability; this is use full for the database because it make it easy to access the database Productivity: this help to improve the database by making the database function Accuracy: Accurate databases rely on good input. if the data isn't accurate, it then becomes subject to errors and it's usefulness becomes increasingly less.
