Databe Management System Introducion

A Database Management System (DBMS) is software that allows users to store, manage, and retrieve data in an organized way. It provides tools for data querying, updating, and administration while ensuring data integrity and security. Common DBMS types include relational, hierarchical, and NoSQL systems, each suited for different types of applications and data needs.

INTRODUCTION
DBMS TUTORIAL
• DBMS Tutorial provides basic and advanced concepts of Database.
• Our DBMS Tutorial is designed for beginners and professionals both.
• Database management system is software that is used to manage the
database.
• Our DBMS Tutorial includes all topics of DBMS such as introduction,
Tables model, keys, relational model, join operation, Ms. Access or SQL,
functional dependency, transaction, concurrency control, etc.
What is Database?
• The database is a collection of inter-related data which is used to retrieve,
insert and delete the data efficiently.
• It is also used to organize the data in the form of a table, schema, views, and
reports, etc.
• For example: The college Database organizes the data about the admin, staff,
students and faculty etc.
• Using the database, we can easily retrieve, insert, and delete the information.
What is Data?
Data is a raw and unorganized fact that required to be processed to
make it meaningful.
Data can be simple at the same time unorganized unless it is
organized.
Generally, data comprises facts, observations, perceptions numbers,
characters, symbols, image, etc.
What is Information?
• Information is a set of data which is processed in a
meaningful way according to the given requirement.
• Information assigns meaning and improves the
reliability of the data.
Database Management System
• Database management system is a software which is used to manage the
database.
• For example: MySQL, Oracle , etc. are a very popular commercial database
which is used in different applications.
• DBMS provides an interface to perform various operations like database
creation, storing data in it, updating data, creating a table in the database and a
lot more.
DBMS allows users the following tasks
• Data Definition: It is used for creation, modification, and removal of
definition that defines the organization of data in the database.
• Data Updating: It is used for the insertion, modification, and deletion of the
actual data in the database.
• Data Retrieval: It is used to retrieve the data from the database which can be
used by applications for various purposes.
• User Administration: It is used for registering and monitoring users,
maintain data integrity, enforcing data security, dealing with concurrency
control, monitoring performance and recovering information corrupted by
unexpected failure.
Characteristics of DBSM
• It uses a digital repository established on a server to store and manage the
information.
• It can provide a clear and logical view of the process that manipulates
data.
• DBMS contains automatic backup and recovery procedures.
• It can reduce the complex relationship between data.
• It is used to support manipulation and processing of data.
• It is used to provide security of data.
Advantages of DBMS
• Controls database redundancy: It can control data redundancy because it stores all the data in
one single database file and that recorded data is placed in the database.
• Data sharing: In DBMS, the authorized users of an organization can share the data among
multiple users.
• Easily Maintenance: It can be easily maintainable due to the centralized nature of the database
system.
• Reduce time: It reduces development time and maintenance need.
• Backup: It provides backup and recovery subsystems which create automatic backup of data from
hardware and software failures and restores the data if required.
• multiple user interface: It provides different types of user interfaces like graphical user interfaces,
application program interfaces.
Disadvantages of DBMS
• Cost of Hardware and Software: It requires a high speed of data
processor and large memory size to run DBMS software.
• Size: It occupies a large space of disks and large memory to run them
efficiently.
• Complexity: Database system creates additional complexity and
requirements.
• Higher impact of failure: Failure is highly impacted the database
because in most of the organization, all the data stored in a single
database and if the database is damaged due to electric failure or
database corruption then the data may be lost forever.
