15. September 2002 Databases A Brief Introduction

16. September 2002 Databases - what are they? n Where do we find Databases? –University –Government –Airline Booking System –Letting Agency n Why and how are they used? n What exactly is a Database? –Collection of related data.

17. September 2002 History of Databases n Where have relational Databases come from? –File based systems –“A collection of application programs that perform services for the end-users such as the production of reports.” –“Each program defines and manages its own data” Connolly et al –Basically an attempt to computerise a filing system

18. September 2002 Limitations of the File System n Data held in separate and isolated stores –Payroll –Personnel –Department n Duplication of data –The same data held in different stores –Inconsistencies in the data stores

19. September 2002 Limitations of the File System cont.. n Data Dependence –Any modification to the data has to be propagated to the programs that access the data n File are dependent on the language of the accessing programs –files created for C programs cannot be accessed by Cobol programs
