Amazon Web Services (AWS)
 Amazon RDS: a relational database server with minimal
administration, using MySQL, Oracle, or SQL Server.
 Amazon DynamoDB: a fast highly scalable NoSQL
database service.
 Amazon SimpleDB: A NoSQL database service for
smaller dataasets
 Amazon EC2 and EBS: A relational database you can
manage on your own.

EC2: Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud

EBS: Amazon Elastic Block Storage

 Relational model (Chapter 2)
 Example of tabular data in the relational model
Columns
Rows

Schemas and Instances
 Schema – the logical structure of the database (like variables)

Example: The database consists of information about a set
of customers and accounts and the relationship between
them

Physical schema: database design at the physical level
(how we store data on disk for system to fast access data)

Logical schema: database design at the logical level
(how users see the data format in order to access data)
 Instance – the actual content of the database (like values)
 Physical Data Independence – the ability to modify the
physical schema without changing the logical schema

Applications depend on the logical schema

Changes in some parts do not seriously influence others.

Data Definition Language (DDL)
 Specification notation for defining the database
schema
Example: create table instructor (
ID
char(5),
name
char(20),
dept_name char(20),
salary
numeric(8,2))
 DDL compiler generates a set of tables stored in a
data dictionary

Data Manipulation Language (DML)
 Language for accessing and manipulating the data
organized by the appropriate data model

DML also known as query language
 SQL is the most widely used query language

Users specifies what data is required and how to
get those data

SQL
 Find the name of the instructor with ID 22222
select name
from instructor
where instructor.ID = ‘22222’
 Find all instructor IDs if they are in a department whose budget >
95000
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

Storage Management
 Storage manager 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 efficient storing,
retrieving and updating of data
 Issues:

Storage access

File organization

Indexing and hashing

Query Processing
1. Parsing and translation
2. Optimization
3. Evaluation

Query Processing (Cont.)
 Alternative ways of evaluating a given query

Equivalent expressions

Different algorithms for each operation
 Cost difference between a good and a bad way of
evaluating a query can be enormous
 Need to estimate the cost of operations

Depends critically on statistical information about
relations which the database must maintain

Need to estimate statistics for intermediate results
to compute cost of complex expressions

Atomicity of Updates & Concurrent
Access
 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
 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
 Concurrent access needed for performance


Transaction Management
 To deal with the system fails.
 To control when many users concurrently update the same
data.
 A transaction is a collection of operations that performs a
single logical function in a database application
 Transaction-management component ensures that the
database remains in a consistent (correct) state despite system
failures (e.g., power failures and operating system crashes)
and transaction failures.
 Concurrency-control manager controls the interaction among
the concurrent transactions, to ensure the consistency of the
database.
