Study Notes

Database Concepts

  • Databases store user data and metadata
  • Data is raw facts, while information is processed data
  • Databases are crucial for decision-making in various modern settings, like business, research, and administration
  • Databases evolved from file systems, addressing limitations in managing data effectively
  • Database design is vital for efficient data management, avoiding redundant data, and creating accurate information
  • A Database Management System (DBMS) manages database structure and controls access to data, making data management more efficient
  • DBMS functions include data dictionary management, storage management to store data and associated forms, reports, data transformation and presentation in a suitable format.
  • DBMS guarantees security and data privacy; multi-user access control; and backup and recovery procedures
  • Database types categorized by user count: single-user (desktop) and multi-user (workgroup, enterprise)
  • Database types categorized by location: centralized (single site) and distributed (multiple sites)
  • Database types categorized by use: operational (OLTP) and analytical (data warehouse)
  • DBMS handles user requests through access languages and application programming interfaces, allowing efficient data retrieval from complex systems
  • Database system contains hardware (physical devices), software (operating system, DBMS, application programs/utilities), people (users, administrators, designers, analysts, programmers), procedures (instructions governing the database system), and data (stored facts)
  • File systems' limitations include complexity, ad-hoc queries, difficulty adapting to changes in file structure, inadequate security, data redundancy, and data anomalies
  • Data dependence and structural dependence are limitations in file systems, where changes in data attributes or file structure require modifications in various application programs.
  • Data anomalies (update, insertion, deletion) lead to data inconsistency and integrity problems in file systems
  • Modern end-user productivity tools (like spreadsheets) can present similar limitations as older file systems
