Database Objectives
Speed

Save, manipulate, and retrieve data easily

Space
Efficiency

Reduce redundancy use relation

Accuracy

Use data constraint, unique data

Availability
Completeness
Security
Sharability

Available to be accessed
If DB is not complete, we can add data or
data structure
User management
Many users can share DB

Database Application Sample

Reservation

Inventory

Customer care

Banking,

WHAT IS DATABASE SYSTEM?

Database System
System : a group of related parts that move or work
together
Database system contains hardware, operating
system, database, DBMS, user, another software
Example :

DBMS
Software that uses a standard method of
cataloging, retrieving, and running queries on
data.
Manages incoming data, organizes it, and
provides ways for the data to be modified or
extracted by users or other programs

Example : MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft

Access, SQL Server, Oracle, etc

Relational Database (RDB) Concept

collective set of multiple data sets organized
by tables, records and columns.
establish a well-defined relationship between
database tables
tables communicate and share information,
which facilitates data searchability,
organization and reporting
use structured query language (SQL)
RDB is derived from the mathematical
function concept of mapping data sets
