Database Types
• Relational databases:
– Organize data in a table
– Link tables to each other through their
primary keys
• Object-oriented databases:
– Stores data in objects
– Handles unstructured data
• Object-relational databases:
– A hybrid of a relational and object-oriented
database

Database Management
Systems (DBMS)
• Application software designed to acquire
and analyze data
• Four main operations of a DBMS are:
– Creating databases and entering data
– Viewing and sorting data
– Extracting data
– Outputting data

Relational Database Operations
• Relational databases organize data into
tables based on logical groupings
• Relationships are links between tables with
related data
• Common fields between tables need to
exist
• Normalization of data (recording data
once) reduces data redundancy

Data Storage
• Data warehouses:
– A large scale
repository of data
– Organizes all the data
related to an
organization
– Data is organized by
subject

Data Mining Methods
• Classification:
– Define data classes
• Estimation:
– Assign a value to data
• Affinity grouping or association rules:
– Determine which data goes together
• Clustering:
– Organize data into subgroups
• Description and visualization:
23
– Provides a clear picture of what is happening
