The document discusses different types of keys used in database management systems (DBMS) to uniquely identify and relate data between tables. It defines keys such as primary keys, foreign keys, candidate keys, surrogate keys, composite keys and others. For example, it states that a primary key uniquely identifies each row in a table and cannot be duplicate, while a foreign key creates a relationship between two tables by referencing the primary key of another table.
The document discusses different types of keys used in database management systems. It defines primary keys as columns that uniquely identify rows in a table and cannot contain null values. It also describes candidate keys, super keys, foreign keys, alternate keys, composite keys, and surrogate keys. The key types allow tables to be linked together and ensure uniqueness and integrity of data in the tables.
This document defines and describes several key concepts in database management systems including primary keys, candidate keys, super keys, foreign keys, alternate keys, and composite keys. A primary key uniquely identifies each record in a table and can only include one column. Candidate keys can also uniquely identify records but a table can have multiple candidate keys whereas only one can be designated the primary key. Super keys may contain multiple attributes to uniquely identify records. Foreign keys link data between tables, and alternate and composite keys are secondary candidate keys that can include multiple columns to uniquely identify records.
Keys in DBMS help uniquely identify rows in tables. There are several types of keys: super keys identify rows but may have extra attributes; primary keys uniquely identify rows and cannot be duplicate or null; foreign keys create relationships between tables by referencing the primary key of another table. Candidate, alternate, compound, composite, and surrogate keys also uniquely identify rows but have their own distinguishing properties. Primary keys cannot be modified if referenced by foreign keys.
The document defines and describes different types of keys used in database management systems. It explains that a primary key uniquely identifies each row in a table and cannot contain null values or duplicate values. A candidate key can also uniquely identify rows but other attributes can also qualify. An alternate key is like a primary key but a table can only have one primary key while other candidate keys are alternate keys. A composite key contains two or more columns that together uniquely identify each row. A super key can identify rows but may contain extra attributes, allowing null values. A foreign key points to the primary key in another table to link the tables.

2. Introduction to Database Keys
Definition:
A key in a database is an attribute or a set of attributes
that uniquely identifies a tuple (row) in a table.
Importance:
Ensures data integrity and uniqueness.
Helps in indexing and fast retrieval of data.
Facilitates relationships between tables.
4. Primary key
Definition: A column or a combination of columns that
uniquely identifies a row in a table.
Characteristics:
Must contain unique values.
Cannot have NULL values.
Only one primary key per table.
Example:
CREATE TABLE Students ( StudentID INT PRIMARY KEY,
Name VARCHAR(100), Age INT);
5. Candidate key
Definition: A set of attributes that can uniquely
identify a tuple, from which the primary key is
chosen.
Example: If a table has StudentID and Email as
unique attributes, both are candidate keys, but
only one is chosen as the primary key.
6. Super key
Definition: A set of one or more attributes that uniquely
identify a tuple in a table.
Example:
(StudentID)
(StudentID, Email)
(StudentID, Name, Email)
All candidate keys are super keys, but not all super
keys are candidate keys.
7. Foreign key
Definition: A key used to establish and enforce a link between two tables.
Characteristics:
References the primary key in another table.
Can have duplicate and NULL values.
Example:
CREATE TABLE Enrollments ( EnrollmentID INT PRIMARY KEY, StudentID INT,
CourseID INT, FOREIGN KEY (StudentID) REFERENCES Students(StudentID));
8. Composite key
Definition: A key that consists of two or more columns to uniquely identify a
row.
Example: In an OrderDetails table, (OrderID, ProductID) together can act as a
composite key.
Alternate Key
Definition: Candidate keys that are not chosen as the primary key.
Example: If both StudentID and Email are candidate keys, but StudentID is
chosen as the primary key, Email becomes an alternate key.
9. Unique key
Definition: Ensures uniqueness in a column but allows NULL values.
Example:
CREATE TABLE Employees ( EmpID INT PRIMARY KEY, Email VARCHAR(255)
UNIQUE);
10. Key Type Uniqueness NULL Allowed Can be Multiple?
Primary Key Yes No No
Candidate Key Yes No Yes
Super Key Yes Yes Yes
Foreign Key No Yes Yes
Composite Key Yes No Yes
Alternate Key Yes No Yes
Unique Key Yes Yes Yes
Comparision of keys
11. Summary
Keys ensure data integrity, uniqueness, and relationships.
Primary vs. Foreign Keys: Primary keys uniquely identify
rows, whereas foreign keys establish relationships.
Candidate and Super Keys: All candidate keys are super
keys but not vice versa.
Composite Keys consist of multiple columns.
