an introduction to database architecture and relational databases. The introduction covers the basic concepts of database design and management‚ focusing on the steps that a database designer should follow when creating a database for use with an application‚ addressing the basic tasks encountered by a database administrator‚ and identifying and discussing some of the aspects of ongoing database management. In Week One‚ you are introduced to a variety of different database architecture types

Benefits of a Hierarchical Network There are many benefits associated with hierarchical network designs. Scalability Hierarchical networks scale very well. The modularity of the design allows you to replicate design elements as the network grows. Because each instance of the module is consistent‚ expansion is easy to plan and implement. For example‚ if your design model consists of two distribution layer switches for every 10 access layer switches‚ you can continue to add access layer switches

have? Ans: An "owner" account is given to those in control of specific relations. They have select‚ modification‚ and reference privileges on that given relation. 2) How is the view mechanism used as an authorization mechanism? Ans: A multiuser database system must selectively permit users to share data‚ while retaining the ability to restrict data access. There must be a mechanism to provide protection and security‚ permitting information to be accessed only by properly authorized users. Further

Hierarchical Levels of Strategy Strategy can be formulated on three different levels: corporate level business unit level functional or departmental level. While strategy may be about competing and surviving as a firm‚ one can argue that products‚ not corporations compete‚ and products are developed by business units. The role of the corporation then is to manage its business units and products so that each is competitive and so that each contributes to corporate purposes. Consider

DataBase Concepts DataBase – a collection of information related to specific entity (e.g. organization‚ bank‚ college‚ library etc.) DBMS – (Database management system) – a application through which we can control the database i.e. we can store data into database‚ update the data and delete also we can retrieve the data from database. For doing these operation DBMS support a language called Structured Query language (SQL). SQL accomplishes many powerful tasks with a mere seven statements: SELECT

DATABASE A database is a collection of data organized to meet users’ needs. Why This Matters Without data and the ability to process it‚ an organization would not be able to successfully engage in business activities‚ nor would it be able to generate reports to support knowledgeable workers and decision makers which in turn help’s to achieve organizational goals; it would not be able to pay employees‚ send out bills‚ and order new inventory. Databases have made it possible to map the structure

Concurrency Control in Distributed Database Systems PHILIP A. BERNSTEIN AND NATHAN GOODMAN Computer Corporation of America‚ Cambridge‚ Massachusetts 02139 In this paper we survey‚ consolidate‚ and present the state of the art in distributed database concurrency control. The heart of our analysts is a decomposition of the concurrency control problem into two major subproblems: read-write and write-write synchronization. We describe a series of synchromzation techniques for solving each subproblem

DATABASE: A database is an organized collection of data. The data is typically organized to model relevant aspects of reality (for example‚ the availability of rooms in hotels)‚ in a way that supports processes requiring this information (for example‚ finding a hotel with vacancies). A general-purpose database management system (DBMS) is a software system designed to allow the definition‚ creation‚ querying‚ update‚ and administration of databases. Well-known DBMSs include MySQL‚ PostgreSQL‚ SQLite
