DATABASE
• Simply: structured collection of data
• Storage: a collection of tables connecting
to each other

DATABASE
• In computer science, a database is a
structured collection of records or data that
is stored in a computer system so that a
computer program or person using a query
language can consult it to answer queries.
• The records retrieved in answer to queries
are information that can be used to make
decisions.
9
DATA
• Data is visualised form of some kind of
knowledge. Representative property of
somebody or something.
• From IT perspective: data is coded
information, stored in a computer as a
signal sequence.
• Has to be stored in a structured and
processable form
10
DATA - examples
• PATIENT DATA:
- name
- birth date
- address
- „TAJ” – patient code
Phone book:
- name
- address
- phone number
11
INFORMATION
• The Sesame Street character
Cookie Monster describes
information as "news or
facts about something."
• Measure unit of information:
bit: value can be 1 or 0 (true / false).
• Information is the result of processing,
gathering, manipulating and organizing data in a
way that adds to the knowledge of the receiver..
12
INFORMATION
Why do we create databases?
• Storing and searching of data
• Retrieval of new informations from stored
data collections
13
DATA TYPES
• Basic property of data fields
• Defines:
– a set of values
– structure of data
– allowable operations on those values
• Makes it possible, that in one column of a
table only same type of data can be
stored.
14
BASIC DATA TYPES
• Can not be divided to further separete
parts

DATA TYPE
• Choosing the correct data type:
– Helps making your database more structured
– Eg.: a field containing birth dates should be
DATE type.
– Helps validating your data:
– Eg.: DATE field can not contain a date like 31.
february 2008.
– You can not enter a text into an INTEGER
field
18
19
Data Types
• Binary
– Database specific binary objects
– Pictures, digital signatures, etc.
• Boolean
– True/False values
• Character
– Fixed width or variable size
• Numeric
– Integer, Real (floating decimal point), Money
• Temporal
– Time, Date, Timestamp
20
SPREADSHEET <-> DATABASE
• Spreadsheet (EXCEL table): structured.
- search
- order
- filter
• Software: Eg.: MS-Excel
21
SPREADSHEET <-> DATABASE
• „Excel database”: table with special layout:
• Rows of the table are connected with
eachoter, containing the properties of one
selected object. Columns: containing the
same kind of property for each object. The
table has a header in the first row.

SPREADSHEET <-> DATABASE
• Disadvantages of Spreadsheet
- The same data set can only be modified
by one user at the same time
- Storage of data is not safe enough
- Structure of data and connections are not
defined
24
SPREADSHEET <-> DATABASE
• Disadvantages of Spreadsheet
- Logical limit: can not use multiple tables
easiliy, as connections between tables can
not be defined

DATABASE
• Data collection organized on the basis of a
data model.
• Contains:
– data
– Structure of data
– Connection rule descriptions
32
DATA MODEL
• A logical structure, defining the layou of
the stored data.
• Contains no data values.
• Only properties of data, structure and
possible connections
33
DATA MODEL
CONCEPTUAL DATA MODEL:
• Analysis of the informations and connections
between them.
• Independent from software tools
PHYSICAL DATA MODEL:
• Structured used in the database:definition of
tables, data types, connection
• Software dependent

Parts of a database
• Attributes (fields)
– An attribute or field is a component of a record that
describes something about an item.
• Records
– A record is the representation of an individual item.
• Table
– A collection of records
• Database
– A collection of tables and rules for accessing the
tables
37
Parts of a database
Record
Tables
Attribute/Field
• Records become “rows”
• Attributes/fields become “columns”
• Rules determine the relationship
between the tables and tie the data
together to form a database
38
Referential Integrity
• Rules to preserve relationships
• Prevents orphan records
– Cannot add records on many sides
– Cannot delete from one side
• Cascade update
• Cascade delete
39
NORMAL FORMS
• The normal forms (abbrev. NF) of relational database
theory provide criteria for determining a table's degree of
vulnerability to logical inconsistencies and anomalies.
The higher the normal form applicable to a table, the less
vulnerable it is to such inconsistencies and anomalies.
Each table has a "highest normal form" (HNF): by
definition, a table always meets the requirements of its
HNF and of all normal forms lower than its HNF; also by
definition, a table fails to meet the requirements of any
normal form higher than its HNF.
• The normal forms are applicable to individual tables; to
say that an entire database is in normal form n is to say
that all of its tables are in normal form n.
40
Normalizing
•
•
•
•
•
Dependencies between data are identified
Redundant data is minimized
Reduces chances of data errors
Reduces disk space
The data model is flexible and easier to
maintain
41
First Normal Form
• Eliminate
repeating columns
in each table
• Create a separate
table for each set
of related data
• Identify each set of
related data with a
primary key
Contacts
Id
Name
Company Address
Phone

Benefits: Now we can have infinite phone numbers or
company addresses for each contact.
Drawback: Now we have to type in everything over and over
again. This leads to inconsistency, redundancy and wasting
space. Thus, the second normal form…
42
Second Normal Form
• Create separate
tables for sets of
values that apply to
multiple records
• Relate these tables
with a “foreign key”.

Is this enough? Codd thought so…
What about “many to many”?
44
Kinds of Relationships
• “One to One”
– One row of a table matches exactly to another
• One person, one id number, one address
• “One to Many”
– One row of a table matches many of another
• One person, many phone numbers
• “Many to Many”
– One row may match many of another or many
rows match one row of another

DATABASE SERVER
• A database server is a computer program that provides
database services to other computer programs or
computers, as defined by the client-server model. The
term may also refer to a computer dedicated to running
such a program. Database management systems
frequently provide database server functionality, and
some DBMS's (e.g., MySQL) rely exclusively on the
client-server model for database access.
• Database Master servers are central and main locations
of data while Database Slave servers are synchronized
backups of the master acting as proxies.
