 DBMS (DataBase Management System)
De nition

• DB + MS = DBMS
• DB (Database) is a collection of interrelated data containing information
relevant to an enterprise.

• MS (Management System) is set of programs to access database information

in convenient and e cient way.
• A database-management system (DBMS) is a collection of interrelated data and a set of
programs to access those data. The collection of data, usually referred to as the
database, contains information relevant to an enterprise. The primary goal of a DBMS is
to provide a way to store and retrieve database information that is both convenient and
e cient.

 File Processing System
Introduction & drawbacks
• File-processing system is supported by a conventional operating system. The system stores permanent records in
various les, and it needs di erent application programs to extract records from, and add records to, the
appropriate les.

• Drawbacks:
• Data redundancy & Inconsistency
• Di culty in Accessing Data
• Data Isolation
• Integrity problem
• Atomicity Problem
• Concurrent Access Anomalies
• Security problems

 Data Models

•
• ER Model
• Relational Model
• Object Oriented Model
• Semi-Structured Model
• Network Model
• Hierarchical Model
 Data Models

Data Abstraction

• Three levels of abstraction are:

DBMS (DataBase Management System)
Terminologies

• Instance & Schema :- The collection of information stored in the database at a particular
moment is called an instance of the database. The overall design of the database is called
the database schema.

• Physical Schema
• Logical Schema
• Subschema
• Database systems have several schemas, partitioned according to the levels of ab- straction.
The physical schema describes the database design at the physical level, while the logical
schema describes the database design at the logical level. A database may also have several
schemas at the view level, sometimes called subschemas, that describe di erent views of
the database.

 Database Languages
DDL & DML

• data-de nition language (DDL): a database schema is speci ed by a set of

de nitions expressed by a special language called a data-de nition language
(DDL).

• the storage structure and access methods used by the database system are
speci ed by a set of statements in a special type of DDL called a data storage
and de nition language.

• Domain constraints, Referential Integrity, Authorizations,

• The output of the DDL is placed in the data dictionary, which contains
metadata—that is, data about data.

 Database Languages
DDL & DML
data-manipulation language (DML): A data-manipulation language (DML) is a language that enables users to
access or ma- nipulate data as organized by the appropriate data model. The types of access are:

• Retrieval of information stored in the database.

• Insertion of new information into the database.

• Deletion of information from the database.

• Modi cation of information stored in the database.

There are basically two types of data-manipulation language:

• Procedural DMLs require a user to specify what data are needed and how to get those data.

• DeclarativeDMLs(alsoreferredtoasnonproceduralDMLs)requireausertospec- ify what data are needed without

specifying how to get those data.

A query is a statement requesting the retrieval of information. The portion of a DML that involves information retrieval
is called a query language. Although technically incorrect, it is common practice to use the terms query language
and data-manipulation language synonymously.

Database Architecture
Database Users
There are four di erent types of database-system users, di erentiated by the way they expect to interact with the
system.

1. Naive users

2. Application Programers

3. Sophisticated Users

4. Database Administrator : A person who has such central control over the system is called a database
administrator (DBA). The functions of a DBA include:

• Schema de nition.
• Storage structure and access-method de nition
• Schema and physical-organization modi cation
• Granting of authorization for data access
• Routine maintenance
