Development of the Relational Databases Lection №4 Main Questions Database introduction. Development of the Relational Databases. 1.Database introduction Definition of the database Types of Databases Database Models 1.0.Repeat - IS An Information System (IS) is the system of persons, data records and activities that process the data and information in a given organization, including manual processes or automated processes; The computer-based information systems is only the Information technologies component of an Information System; The computer-based information systems are the field of study for Information technologies (IT) 1.0.Repeat - HIS The aim of an HIS is to achieve the best possible support of patient care and administration by electronic data processing: more efficient use of the restricted resources available for patient care; qualitative improvement of the service to the patient; support of research; support of teaching; 1.0.Repeat - HIS Databases 1.0.Repeat - HIS Databases 1.1.Definition of the database Brief. Database is a computerized record keeping system. Full. Database is a system involving data, the hardware that physically stores that data, the software that utilizes the hardware's file system in order to 1) store the data and 2) provide a standardized method for retrieving or changing the data, and finally, the users who turn the data into information 1.2.Types of Databases Analytic databases (OLAP- On Line Analytical Processing) are primarily static, read-only databases which store archived, historical data used for analysis. Operational databases (OLTP On Line Transaction Processing), are used to manage more dynamic bits of data. This databases allow you to modify that data (add, change or delete data). These types of databases are usually used to track realtime information. 1.3. Database Models Hierarchical Databases - defines hierarchically-arranged data. Network Databases - use set theory to provide a tree-like hierarchy with the exception that child tables were allowed to have more than one parent . Relational Databases - represents data in the form of two-dimension tables. 1.3.1.Hierarchical Databases This type of relationship can be visualized as upside down tree of data. In this tree, a single table acts as the "root" of the database from which other tables "branch" out. Problem 1. User cannot add a record to a child table until it has already been incorporated into the parent table . Problem 2. Redundancy would occur because hierarchical databases handle one-to-many relationships well but do not handle many-tomany relationships well Hierarchical Databases Structure Redundancy in the hierarchical database 1.3.2.Network Databases ІМ Is very similar to the hierarchical model actually. In fact, the hierarchical model is a subset of the network model. However, instead of using a single-parent tree hierarchy, this model uses set theory to provide a tree-like hierarchy with the exception that child tables were allowed to have more than one parent. This allowed the network model to support many-to-many relationships. Problem. This model was difficult to implement and maintain Network Databases Structure 1.3.3.Relational Databases Was formally introduced by Dr. E. F. Codd in 1970 and has evolved since then: Represents data in the form of twodimension tables. Each table represents some real-world person, place, thing, or event about which information is collected. Two or more tables can be linked by relationship. 2. Development of the Relational Databases Overview of the Relational Model Data Structure and Terminology Properties of Relational Tables Relationships and Keys Data Integrity Normalization DBMS 2.1.Relational Model Overview The relational model represents data in the form of two-dimension tables. The organization of data into relational tables is known as the logical view of the database. That is, the form in which a relational database presents data to the user and the programmer. . The way the database software physically stores the data on a computer disk system is called the internal view. The internal view differs from product to product. 2.2.Data Structure and Terminology A database is a collection of relational tables. A relational table is a flat file composed of a set of named columns and an arbitrary number of unnamed rows. A data value is stored in the intersection of a row and column. The columns of the tables contain information about the table. The rows of the table represent occurrences of the "thing" represented by the table. 2.2.1. Terminology In This Document Formal Terms Many Database Manuals Relational Table Relation Table Column Attribute Field Row Tuple Record 2.3. Properties of Relational Tables Values are atomic. Column values are of the same kind. Each row is unique. The sequence of columns is insignificant. The sequence of rows is insignificant. Each column must have a unique name. 2.3.1. Properties of Relational Tables Values are atomic - columns in a relational table are not repeating group or arrays. Such tables are referred to as being in the "first normal form" (1NF) . Column values are of the same kind. In relational terms this means that all values in a column come from the same domain. A domain is a set of values which a column may have. 2.3.2. Properties of Relational Tables Each row is unique. This property ensures that no two rows in a relational table are identical; there is at least one column, or set of columns, the values of which uniquely identify each row in the table. The sequence of columns is insignificant. This property states that the ordering of the columns in the relational table has no meaning. Columns can be retrieved in any order and in various sequences. 2.3.3. Properties of Relational Tables The Sequence of Rows is Insignificant. The rows of a relational table can be retrieved in different order and sequences. Each Column Has a Unique Name. Because the sequence of columns is insignificant, columns must be referenced by name and not by position. 2.4. Relationships and Keys A relationship is an association between two or more tables. Relationships are expressed in the data values of the primary and foreign keys . A primary key is a column or columns in a table whose values uniquely identify each row in a table Визначити ключові атрибути. A foreign key is a column or columns whose values are the same as the primary key of another table. The relationship is made between two relational tables by matching the values of the foreign key in one table with the values of the primary key in another. 2.4.1. Relationships Type A one-to-one (1:1) relationship is when at most one instance of a entity A is associated with one instance of entity B. 2.4.2. Relationships Type A one-to-many (1:N) relationships is when for one instance of entity A, there are zero, one, or many instances of entity B, but for one instance of entity B, there is only one instance of entity A. 2.4.3. Relationships Type A many-to-many (M:N) relationship (non-specific) is when for one instance of entity A, there are zero, one, or many instances of entity B and for one instance of entity B there are zero, one, or many instances of entity A . 2.5. Data Integrity Data integrity means, in part, that you can correctly and consistently navigate and manipulate the tables in the database. The entity integrity rule states that the value of the primary key can never be a null value (and should never be unknown). The referential integrity rule states that if a relational table has a foreign key, then every value of the foreign key must either be null or match the values in the relational table in which that foreign key is a primary key 2.6. Normalization Basics. The goal of normalization is to create a set of relational tables that are free of redundant data and that can be consistently and correctly modified. . Normalization theory is based on the concepts of normal forms. There are currently five normal forms that have been defined. Normalization is essentially a two step process that puts data into tabular form by removing repeating groups and then removes duplicated data from the relational tables. 2.6. Normalization. 1NF A relational table, by definition, is in first normal form (1NF). All values of the columns are atomic. That is, they contain no repeating values. Table in 1NF it contains redundant data 2.6. Normalization. 2NF A relational table is in second normal form (2NF) if it is in 1NF and every non-key column is fully dependent upon the primary key. 2.6. Normalization. 3NF A relational table is in third normal form (3NF) if it is already in 2NF and every non-key column is non transitively dependent upon its primary key. In other words, all nonkey attributes are functionally dependent only upon the primary key. 2.7. DBMS. A database management system (DBMS) is a software package with computer programs that control the creation, maintenance, and use of a database. It allows organizations to conveniently develop databases for various applications by database administrators (DBAs) and other specialists.
