Database Management System (DBMS)
 DBMS contains information about a particular enterprise
  

Collection of interrelated data Set of programs to access the data An environment that is both convenient and efficient to use Banking: transactions Airlines: reservations, schedules Universities: registration, grades Sales: customers, products, purchases Online retailers: order tracking, customized recommendations Manufacturing: production, inventory, orders, supply chain Human resources: employee records, salaries, tax deductions

 Database Applications:
      

 Databases touch all aspects of our lives

University Database Example
 What are some examples of Application program?

 In the early days, database applications were built directly on top of file

systems

University Database Example
 Application program examples
  

Add new students, instructors, and courses Register students for courses, and generate class rosters Assign grades to students, compute grade point averages (GPA) and generate transcripts

 In the early days, database applications were built directly on top of file

systems


What would be some of the disadvantages of such a strategy?

Purpose of Database Systems
 Drawbacks of using file systems to store data:


Data redundancy and inconsistency


Multiple file formats, duplication of information in different files Need to write a new program to carry out each new task



Difficulty in accessing data


 

Data isolation ² multiple files and formats Integrity problems


Integrity constraints (e.g., account balance > 0) become ³buried´ in program code rather than being stated explicitly Hard to add new constraints or change existing ones

Purpose of Database Systems (Cont.)
 Drawbacks of using file systems (cont.)




Atomicity of updates  Failures may leave database in an inconsistent state with partial updates carried out  Example: Transfer of funds from one account to another should either complete or not happen at all Concurrent access by multiple users  Concurrent access needed for performance  Uncontrolled concurrent accesses can lead to inconsistencies

± Example: Two people reading a balance (say 100) and updating it by withdrawing money (say 50 each) at the same time  Security problems  Hard to provide user access to some, but not all, data  Database systems offer solutions to all the above problems

Levels of Abstraction
An architecture for a database system

Database System Concepts - 6th Edition

1.8

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan

Levels of Abstraction
 Physical level: describes how a record (e.g., customer) is stored.  Logical level: describes data stored in database, and the relationships among the

data. type instructor = record ID : string; name : string; dept_name : string; salary : integer; end;
 View level: application programs hide details of data types. Views can also hide

information (such as an employee¶s salary) for security purposes.

Instances and Schemas
 

Similar to types and variables in programming languages Schema ± the logical structure of the database


Example: The database consists of information about a set of customers and accounts and the relationship between them Analogous to type information of a variable in a program Physical schema: database design at the physical level Logical schema: database design at the logical level Analogous to the value of a variable

  



Instance ± the actual content of the database at a particular point in time




Physical Data Independence ± the ability to modify the physical schema without changing the logical schema
 

Applications depend on the logical schema In general, the interfaces between the various levels and components should be well defined so that changes in some parts do not seriously influence others.

Data Models
 What is a Data Model? And why have these?

 Relational model  Entity-Relationship data model (mainly for database design)  Object-based data models (Object-oriented and Object-relational)  Semistructured data model (XML)  Other older models:
 

Network model Hierarchical model

Data Manipulation Language (DML)
 Language for accessing and manipulating the data organized by the

appropriate data model


DML also known as query language Procedural ± user specifies what data is required and how to get those data (relational algebra) Declarative (nonprocedural) ± user specifies what data is required without specifying how to get those data (SQL)

 Two classes of languages




 SQL is the most widely used query language

Data Definition Language (DDL)
 Specification notation for defining the database schema

create table instructor ( ID char(5), name varchar(20), dept_name varchar(20), salary numeric(8,2))  DDL compiler generates a set of tables stored in a data dictionary  Data dictionary contains metadata (i.e., data about data)  Database schema  Integrity constraints Primary key (ID uniquely identifies instructors)  Referential integrity (references constraint in SQL) ± e.g. dept_name value in any instructor tuple must appear in department relation Authorization ~ read, insert, update, delete


Example:

SQL
 SQL: widely used non-procedural language


Example: Find the name of the instructor with ID 22222 select instructor.ID, department.dept name from instructor, department where instructor.dept name= department.dept name and department.budget > 95000



 Application programs generally access databases through one of
 

Language extensions to allow embedded SQL Application program interface (e.g., ODBC/JDBC) which allow SQL queries to be sent to a database

Database Design
The process of designing the general structure of the database:
 Logical Design ± Deciding on the database schema. Database design requires that

we find a ³good´ collection of relation schemas.
 

Business decision ± What attributes should we record in the database? Computer Science decision ± What relation schemas should we have and how should the attributes be distributed among the various relation schemas?

 Physical Design ± Deciding on the physical layout of the database

Database Design?
 Is there any problem with this design?

Design Approaches
 Normalization Theory (Chapter 8)


Formalize what designs are bad, and test for them Models an enterprise as a collection of entities and relationships


 Entity Relationship Model (Chapter 7)


Entity: a ³thing´ or ³object´ in the enterprise that is distinguishable from other objects ± Described by a set of attributes Relationship: an association among several entities





Represented diagrammatically by an entity-relationship diagram:

ObjectObject-Relational Data Models
 Relational model: flat, ³atomic´ values.


Atomic is sometimes hard to understand. Extend the relational data model by including object orientation and constructs to deal with added data types. Allow attributes of tuples to have complex types, including non-atomic values such as nested relations. Preserve relational foundations, in particular the declarative access to data, while extending modeling power. Provide upward compatibility with existing relational languages.

 Object Relational Data Models

XML: Extensible Markup Language
 Defined by the WWW Consortium (W3C)  Originally intended as a document markup language not a database

language
 The ability to specify new tags, and to create nested tag structures made

XML a great way to exchange data, not just documents
 XML has become the basis for all new generation data interchange formats.  A wide variety of tools is available for parsing, browsing and querying XML

documents/data
<bank> <account> <number> A-101 </number> <balance> 3000 </balance> </account> <account> <number> A-101 </number> <balance> 5000 </balance> </account> </bank>

Storage Management
 Storage manager is a program module that provides the interface between the

low-level data stored in the database and the application programs and queries submitted to the system.
 The storage manager is responsible to the following tasks:
 

Interaction with the file manager Efficient storing, retrieving and updating of data Storage access File organization Indexing and hashing

 Issues:

Query Processing
 Alternate ways of evaluating a given query




Equivalent expressions  Customer (id, address info); Balance (id, amount)  Print addresses of customers with balance > 2000 Different algorithms for each operation  How many seeks? Get to first block; transfer data. Data not contiguous? (more seeks).  Using an index? Binary search? Cost difference between good and bad way of query evaluation can be enormous Need to estimate cost of operations  Statistical information about relations which a database maintains  Estimates for complex expressions

Transaction Management
 What if the system fails?  What if more than one user is concurrently updating the same data?  A transaction is a collection of operations that performs a single logical

function in a database application.
     

Read (A); A = A + 50; Write (A); Read (B); B = B - 50; Write (B);

History of Database Systems
 1950s and early 1960s:


Data processing using magnetic tapes for storage


Tapes provided only sequential access



Punched cards for input Hard disks allowed direct access to data Network and hierarchical data models in widespread use Ted Codd defines the relational data model
  

 Late 1960s and 1970s:
  

Would win the ACM Turing Award for this work IBM Research begins System R prototype UC Berkeley begins Ingres prototype
