Match the database role with its description:

Database administrator = Responsible for securing the database system against unauthorized users Authorization = Database systems authorize individual users to access specific data Query processor = Interprets queries, creates a plan to modify the database or retrieve data Transaction manager = Ensures transactions are properly executed

<p>INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE operations (MongoDB) = Supported operations in MongoDB CREATE TABLE statement (SQL) = Defines a new table with specified names and data types CREATE TABLE, DROP TABLE, ALTER TABLE statements (SQL) = Operations for creating, deleting, and modifying tables and their structure Integer data types (SQL) = Includes INT (4 bytes) and SMALLINT (2 bytes) for representing positive and negative integers</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following database phases with their descriptions:

<p>Logical design phase = Converts entities, relationships, and attributes into tables, keys, and columns Physical design phase = Adds indexes and optimizes table organization on storage media Business rules = Based on specific database requirements SQL sublanguages = DDL, DQL, DML, DCL, and DTL</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following SQL concepts with their descriptions:

Match the database table type with its description:

<p>Heap table = Optimizes insert operations and fast for bulk load of many rows Sorted table = Database designer identifies a sort column that determines physical row order Hash table = Rows are assigned to buckets and uses a simple hash function with four steps Table cluster = Interleaves rows of two or more tables in the same storage area</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the database operation with its definition:

<p>Table scan = Reads table blocks directly without accessing an index Index scan = Reads index blocks sequentially in order to locate the needed table blocks Dense index = Contains an entry for every table row Sparse index = Contains an entry for every table block</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following terms with their descriptions in entity-relationship diagrams (ER diagrams):

<p>Entities = Represented as rectangles, with types being sets of things and instances being individual things Attributes = Represented as sets of values and are usually transformed into tables, columns, and keys Cardinality = Refers to the maximum and minimum number of instances of one entity that can relate to a single instance of another entity Subtype entities = A subset of a supertype entity and are documented within the supertype entity in an ER diagram</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following terms with their definitions in data modeling:

<p>Primary keys = Unique identifiers for a table that should be stable, simple, and meaningless Functional dependence = The relationship between one column and another Normalization = The process of eliminating redundancy in a table Trivial dependencies = Occur when one column is a subset of another, and normalization eliminates this redundancy</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following terms with their explanations in database design:

<p>Analysis = The first step in creating an ER diagram, during which entities, relationships, and attributes are discovered Logical design = A step in data modeling that progresses through steps of analysis, logical design, and physical design Physical design = A step in data modeling that progresses through steps of analysis, logical design, and physical design Crow's foot notation = Used in ER diagrams to depict cardinality</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following terms with their characteristics in table structures:

<p>Intangible entity = Documented but not tracked with data in the database Heap tables = Tables with no imposed order on rows Entity types = Sets of things in an ER diagram Relationship types = Sets of related things in an ER diagram</p> Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

  • An entity-relationship diagram (ER diagram) is a visual representation of entities, relationships, and attributes
  • Entities are represented as rectangles, with types being sets of things (e.g., all employees in a company) and instances being individual things (e.g., the employee Sam Snead)
  • Types of entities include entity types (sets of things) and relationship types (sets of related things)
  • Attributes are represented as sets of values and are usually transformed into tables, columns, and keys, respectively
  • Analysis is the first step in creating an ER diagram, during which entities, relationships, and attributes are discovered
  • Cardinality refers to the maximum and minimum number of instances of one entity that can relate to a single instance of another entity
  • Subtype entities are a subset of a supertype entity and are documented within the supertype entity in an ER diagram
  • Primary keys are unique identifiers for a table that should be stable, simple, and meaningless
  • Data modeling progresses through steps of analysis, logical design, and physical design
  • Functional dependence is the relationship between one column and another, and normalization is the process of eliminating redundancy in a table
  • ER diagrams use crow's foot notation to depict cardinality
  • An intangible entity is documented but not tracked with data in the database
  • Tables can be in various normal forms (e.g., third normal form, Boyce-Codd normal form) to minimize redundancy
  • Trivial dependencies occur when one column is a subset of another, and normalization eliminates this redundancy
  • Databases can have different table structures, such as heap tables with no imposed order on rows.
