Study Notes
Data Extraction, Integration, and Process Documentation
- Structured Query Language (SQL): Computer language for interacting with relational databases (tables, records, attributes).
-
SQL Commands:
-
SELECT
: Specifies attributes to view (e.g.,SELECT *
for all attributes). -
FROM
: Specifies table containing attributes. -
JOIN
: Combines data from multiple tables.-
INNER JOIN
: Retrieves matching data. -
LEFT JOIN
: Retrieves data from the left table, even if no match exists in the right table.
-
-
WHERE
: Filters results based on conditions (e.g.,WHERE Sales_Price > 10
). -
HAVING
: Filters aggregated data (e.g.,HAVING SUM(Quantity_Sold) > 200
). -
GROUP BY
: Aggregates data into subtotals based on categories (e.g.,GROUP BY Customer_ID
).
-
- Database Elements: References to table names, attribute names, or criteria.
BPMN Activity Models
- Standardized tool: For depicting business processes using symbols and rules.
- Flow Activities: Processes within an organization.
- Pools: Represent organizations involved in a process.
- Swim Lanes: Subdivide pools to indicate segregation of duties.
-
Events: Points of change in the process.
- Start Events: Indicate the start of a process (thin circle).
- Intermediate Events: Indicate changes within a process (double-lined circle).
- End Events: Represent the completion of a process (thickened circle).
- Tasks: Actions in a process (rectangle with rounded corners).
-
Flows:
- Sequence Flows: Connect objects within a pool (smooth-lined arrows).
- Message Flows: Represent communication between different pools (dotted lines).
- Gateways: Represent decisions within a process (diamond shape).
Data Flow Diagrams
- Standardized: For representing business processes at a granular level.
- Logical Flow: Represents the process without specific details.
-
Components:
- Processes: Actions that result in data transformation (circle or rectangle).
- Data Flows: Arrows representing data movement.
- Data Stores/Warehouses: Open-ended rectangles representing data storage.
- External Entities: Squares representing external parties interacting with the system.
Flowcharts
- Representation: Logical and physical flow of documents & information through a process.
System Interface Diagram
- Interaction: Shows how internal and external users interact with systems.
- Display: Logical and physical flow interface for both systems internally and externally.
