The document provides an introduction to databases. It defines key database concepts including database, database management system (DBMS), table, record, and field. It explains that a database contains organized data stored in tables which contain records made up of related fields. An example is provided of a school database containing data about students, instructors, classes, and student schedules. Advantages of databases include data sharing, improved security and integrity, and reduced redundancy. Disadvantages include complex design, costs, and training needs. Primary keys uniquely identify each record in a table while foreign keys in one table match the primary key of another table to link the tables.

3. DATABASE
6.1 Introduction to Database
Database
● Can be define as ;
● An integrated collection of related data OR
● Collection of data organized in a manner that allows access,
retrieval, and use of that data – Shelly & Varmaat, 2012, OR
● A collection of data, manage and organized by a database
management system – Petersen, 2002
● Related data, e.g. : information stored in University
(students, courses, faculty, students taking
courses, faculty teaching courses … )
● Integrated: all data is stored in a uniform way on
secondary storage.

4. DATABASE
6.1 Introduction to Database
Database Management System (DBMS)
● Can be define as ;
● A collection of programs that is used to create, maintain and
manipulate data in the database, OR
● Specific type of software for creating, storing, organizing and
accessing data from a database.
● Provide an interface between the database and its
users and other application programs
● DBA, a database administrator is the people
responsible for managing database, who sets up and
manage a database.

5. DATABASE
6.1 Introduction to Database
DBMS’s example software

6. File System versus Databases
Almost all application programs use either these two
approaches (in managing data and information);
DATABASE
6.1 Introduction to Database

7. ● Each department in an organization has its own set
of files.
● The records in one file may not relate to the records
in any other file.
● Organizations have used file processing systems
for many years.
DATABASE
6.1 Introduction to Database

8. ● Weakness 1 , redundancy of data
Each department in an organization has its own set
of files
● Weakness 2 , isolation of data
The records in one file may not relate to the records
in any other file.
● Weakness 3 , hard to maintain security of data and
information stored in files
Organizations have used file processing systems
for many years.
DATABASE
6.1 Introduction to Database

9. ● Database system
– many programs
and users share the
data in the database.
● Example 1: a school’s
database most likely at a
minimum contains data about
students, instructors, schedule
of classes, and student
schedules.
● Example 2: a library’s
database stored data about
book’s title, the author, ISBN
number.

1. Sharing data
- data in a database environment is shared over a
network.
2. Easier Access
- better data accessibility using standard data query
language (SQL). allows end-user to access and
maintain data.
3. Reduced data redundancy
- reduce data redundancy/duplication by improving
data sharing.

27. TABLE RECORD FIELD
• also known as database
file/s.
• organized data in
rows and columns.
• contain fields (column)
and records (row).
• Data file – collection of
related records, stored
in any available storage
medium.
• also known as
rows/tuple.
• Contains data values
(name for a person, of a
product, an ID for
student).
• a collections of
related fields in a
database.
• also represent a data
attributes (describing an
entity).
• also known as a
columns
• contains a specific
category of data within
a record.
• single category of data
to be stored in
database.
• field name – uniquely
identifies each field.
• field size – defines the
maximum of characters

Text store data that is not manipulated arithmetically
Number store numeric data, arithmetically can be manipulated (integer, decimal
– are available)
Currency special for numeric data that represents money (output with currency
signs, decimal points and commas.)

39. Primary Key
and
Foreign Key
6.2 Basic Concept of Database

40. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database

41. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Primary Key (in database) – a field,
uniquely identifies each record in a file.
• also known as a key field
• data (in the field) is unique.
• can be used to integrate data in database.

42. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Primary Key (PK) (in database) – should
follow the listed rules (in order to use it in
database)
• PK must contain a value – that is must be
declared (NOT NULL).
• PK value must be unique for each record (row).
• PK value must no change or become NULL
Benefits of using primary key (in
database) ;
• ensuring there’s no duplicate records in
database.
• preventing a NULL value being entered in
unique field.

43. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Foreign Key (in database) – a field in
relational table, that matches primary key
column of another table.
Explain:
1st
Table
2nd
Table
Relational /
Relationships
Line
Connecting 1st
and 2nd
Table

44. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Explain:
Foreign Key (in database) – a field in
relational table, that matches primary
key column of another table.
Remember !
• From the image, there are 2 tables. 1
Contact_Samsun.. And #2 is Hostel
Info. Both has been connected, thus
makes the table is a relational table.
• In Table #1, Contact_Samsun… ,
field Matric_Num is the PK, and there
are not Foreign Key in table 1.
• In Table #2, Hostel Info, field Room
Num is the PK (for that table), and
Matric_Num is the Foreign Key
(because it matches primary key form
another table ,Table #1).

45. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Conclusion:
Foreign Key (in database) – a field in
relational table, that matches primary key
column of another table.
Remember !
A foreign key (sometimes called a
referencing key) is ;
• key used to link two tables
together.
• taking primary key field
from one table and insert it
into the other table (where it
becomes a foreign key).

46. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database

47. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database

48. Primary Key & Foreign Key
Differences of primary key and foreign key;
- Primary can contain only unique value while foreign
key may contain duplicate value.
Importance of relationship between the Primary Key
and Foreign Key
- The primary key of one table becomes a foreign of
other table (by matching a foreign key with a primary
key, there is no need to enter data repeatedly)
- Making the process (query, form, reports) easier.
- Improves data performance by relating smaller tables
into meaningful databases.
6.2 Basic Concept of Database

49. Entity Relationship
6.2 Basic Concept of Database
- A data model that describes data and
information, implemented in a
relational database

50. Entity
• Something of importance to the
organization.
• Entities that the organization
wants to store data about typically
becomes a database table.
• Person, place, object, event or
concept in the user environment
about which the organization
wishes to maintain data.
• “thing” or object that contain
data.
• Represented by a rectangle in E-R
(entity-relationship) diagrams
6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Relationship
• An association between data that's
stored in different record types.
• Important because typically describes
an association between two or more
entities.
Cardinality
• Important aspect of the relationship
between record types.
• Number of associations that can exist
between two record types.
Attributes
• Characteristic of an entity.
• Property of an entity set

51. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
TERM EXAMPLES
Entity (a noun) Product, Name, Book, Student,
Model, Lecturer, Staff
Relationship (a verb) order, register, claim, enroll, pay.
Cardinality (type of relationship) One-to-One (1:1)
One-to-Many (1:M)
Many-to-One (M:1)
Many-to-Many (M:N)
Attribute (entity’s property) product_serial_num,
product_price,
product_name

52. TERM DIAGRAM SYMBOL
Entity (a noun)
rectangle/square
Relationship (a verb)
a diamond shape
Cardinality (type of
relationship)
writing type of relationship on each relationship
lines
Attribute (entity’s
property) an oval shape
6.2 Basic Concept of Database

53. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Example of ER-Diagram
(Entity-Relationship Diagram)
Identify
• How many entity are
there in the
ER-diagram ?
• Which entity has the
most attributes ?
• List the attributes for
entity label Mark
• What is the
relationship
between Student
and Teacher ?

54. Types of Entity-relationships (Cardinality) in database
6.2 Basic Concept of Database
One-to-One (1:1) One-to-Many (1:M)
Many-to-One (M:1)
Many-to-Many (M:N)
a record in one record
type is related to one
record in another record
type

55. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Example 1
Example 2
2 entity, Teacher and Subject, the
relationship is supervise,
Cardinality is 1:1
2 entity, Student and Module, the
relationship is enroll,
Cardinality is 1:1

56. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Example 1
Example 2
2 entity, Football Team and Player,
the relationship is join,
Cardinality is 1:M
2 entity, Person and Location,
the relationship is birthplace,
Cardinality is M:1

57. 6.2 Basic Concept of Database
Example 1
Example 2 2 entity, Student and Course,
the relationship is register,
Cardinality is M:N
