Relational databases organize data into one or more tables made up of rows and columns to show relationships between different data structures. Relationships are logical connections between tables established based on interactions among the tables. Relational algebra provides theoretical foundations for relational databases and SQL through operators like select, project, join, and union that take relations as input and output new relations. Relational calculus is a non-procedural query language that uses predicates and quantifiers to specify what to retrieve from relations rather than how to retrieve it.
The document discusses relational database query languages. Relational algebra is a procedural query language that takes relations as input and returns relations as output.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
2. What is Relational Algebra?
1. Relational algebra is a widely used procedural query
language.
2. It collects instances of relations as input and gives
occurrences of relations as output.
3. It uses operators to perform queries. An operator
can be either unary or binary.
4. It uses various operation to perform this action.
3. The fundamental operations of relational algebra
Select
Project
Union
Set different
Cartesian product
Rename
4. Relational Algebra Overview
Relational Algebra consists of several groups of operations
Unary Relational Operations
SELECT (symbol: (sigma))
PROJECT (symbol: (pi))
RENAME (symbol: (rho))
Relational Algebra Operations From Set Theory
UNION ( ), INTERSECTION ( ), DIFFERENCE (or MINUS, – )
CARTESIAN PRODUCT ( x )
Binary Relational Operations
JOIN (several variations of JOIN exist)
DIVISION
Additional Relational Operations
OUTER JOINS, OUTER UNION
AGGREGATE FUNCTIONS (These compute summary of information:
for example, SUM, COUNT, AVG, MIN, MAX)
Slide 6- 4
5. Slide 6- 5
Database State for COMPANY
All examples discussed below refer to the COMPANY database shown
here.
6. Slide 6- 6
Unary Relational Operations: SELECT
The SELECT operation (denoted by (sigma)) is used to select a
subset of the tuples from a relation based on a selection condition.
The selection condition acts as a filter
Keeps only those tuples that satisfy the qualifying condition
Tuples satisfying the condition are selected whereas the other
tuples are discarded (filtered out)
Examples:
Select the EMPLOYEE tuples whose department number is 4:
DNO = 4 (EMPLOYEE)
Select the employee tuples whose salary is greater than $30,000:
SALARY > 30,000 (EMPLOYEE)
7. Slide 6- 7
Unary Relational Operations: SELECT
In general, the select operation is denoted by
<selection condition>(R) where
the symbol (sigma) is used to denote the select operator
the selection condition is a Boolean (conditional) expression
specified on the attributes of relation R
tuples that make the condition true are selected
appear in the result of the operation
tuples that make the condition false are filtered out
discarded from the result of the operation
8. Slide 6- 8
Unary Relational Operations: PROJECT
PROJECT Operation is denoted by (pi)
This operation keeps certain columns (attributes) from
a relation and discards the other columns.
PROJECT creates a vertical partitioning
The list of specified columns (attributes) is kept in each tuple
The other attributes in each tuple are discarded
Example: To list each employee’s first and last name
and salary, the following is used:
LNAME, FNAME,SALARY(EMPLOYEE)
9. Slide 6- 9
Unary Relational Operations: PROJECT (cont.)
The general form of the project operation is:
<attribute list>(R)
(pi) is the symbol used to represent the project
operation
<attribute list> is the desired list of attributes from
relation R.
The project operation removes any duplicate tuples
This is because the result of the project operation must
be a set of tuples
Mathematical sets do not allow duplicate elements.
11. Slide 6- 11
Single expression versus sequence of relational
operations (Example)
To retrieve the first name, last name, and salary of all
employees who work in department number 5, we must
apply a select and a project operation
We can write a single relational algebra expression as
follows:
FNAME, LNAME, SALARY( DNO=5(EMPLOYEE))
OR We can explicitly show the sequence of operations,
giving a name to each intermediate relation:
DEP5_EMPS DNO=5(EMPLOYEE)
RESULT FNAME, LNAME, SALARY (DEP5_EMPS)
12. Slide 6- 12
Unary Relational Operations: RENAME
The RENAME operator is denoted by (rho)
In some cases, we may want to rename the attributes of
a relation or the relation name or both
Useful when a query requires multiple
operations
Necessary in some cases of Join
13. Slide 6- 13
Unary Relational Operations: RENAME (contd.)
The general RENAME operation can be expressed by
any of the following forms:
S (B1, B2, …, Bn )(R) changes both:
the relation name to S, and
the column (attribute) names to B1, B1, …..Bn
S(R) changes:
the relation name only to S
(B1, B2, …, Bn )(R) changes:
the column (attribute) names only to B1, B1, …..Bn
14. Slide 6- 14
Unary Relational Operations: RENAME (contd.)
For convenience, we also use a shorthand for renaming
attributes in an intermediate relation:
If we write:
• RESULT FNAME, LNAME, SALARY (DEP5_EMPS)
• RESULT will have the same attribute names as
DEP5_EMPS (same attributes as EMPLOYEE)
• If we write:
• RESULT (F, M, L, S, B, A, SX, SAL, SU, DNO)
FNAME, LNAME, SALARY (DEP5_EMPS)
• The 10 attributes of DEP5_EMPS are renamed to F, M,
L, S, B, A, SX, SAL, SU, DNO, respectively

Set Operations
Binary operations from mathematical set theory:
UNION: R1 U R2,
INTERSECTION: R1 | | R2,
SET DIFFERENCE: R1 - R2,
CARTESIAN PRODUCT: R1 X R2.
- For U, | |, -, the operand relations R1(A1, A2, ..., An) and R2(B1, B2,
..., Bn) must have the same number of attributes, and the domains of
corresponding attributes must be compatible; that is, dom(Ai)=dom(Bi)
for i=1, 2, ..., n. This condition is called union compatibility.
The resulting relation for U, | |, or - has the same attribute names as the
first operand relation R1 (by convention).

Relational Algebra Operations from
Set Theory: UNION
UNION Operation
Binary operation, denoted by
The result of R S, is a relation that includes all tuples that are
either in R or in S or in both R and S
Duplicate tuples are eliminated
The two operand relations R and S must be “type
compatible” (or UNION compatible)
R and S must have same number of attributes
Each pair of corresponding attributes must be type compatible
(have same or compatible domains)
18. Slide 6- 18
Relational Algebra Operations from Set Theory: UNION
Example:
To retrieve the social security numbers of all employees who
either work in department 5 (RESULT1 below) or directly
supervise an employee who works in department 5 (RESULT2
below)
We can use the UNION operation as follows:
DEP5_EMPS DNO=5 (EMPLOYEE)
RESULT1 SSN(DEP5_EMPS)
RESULT2(SSN) SUPERSSN(DEP5_EMPS)
RESULT RESULT1 RESULT2
The union operation produces the tuples that are in either
RESULT1 or RESULT2 or both
20. Slide 6- 20
Relational Algebra Operations from Set Theory
Type Compatibility of operands is required for the binary
set operation UNION , (also for INTERSECTION , and
SET DIFFERENCE –, see next slides)
R1(A1, A2, ..., An) and R2(B1, B2, ..., Bn) are type compatible
if:
they have the same number of attributes, and
the domains of corresponding attributes are type compatible
(i.e. dom(Ai)=dom(Bi) for i=1, 2, ..., n).
The resulting relation for R1R2 (also for R1R2, or R1–R2,
see next slides) has the same attribute names as the first
operand relation R1 (by convention)
21. Slide 6- 21
Relational Algebra Operations from Set Theory:
INTERSECTION
INTERSECTION is denoted by
The result of the operation R S, is a relation that includes
all tuples that are in both R and S
The attribute names in the result will be the same as the
attribute names in R
The two operand relations R and S must be “type
compatible”
22. Slide 6- 22
Relational Algebra Operations from Set Theory: SET
DIFFERENCE (cont.)
SET DIFFERENCE (also called MINUS or EXCEPT) is
denoted by –
The result of R – S, is a relation that includes all tuples that
are in R but not in S
The attribute names in the result will be the same as the
attribute names in R
The two operand relations R and S must be “type
compatible”
23. Slide 6- 23
Example to illustrate the result of UNION, INTERSECT, and
DIFFERENCE
24. Slide 6- 24
Some properties of UNION, INTERSECT, and
DIFFERENCE
Notice that both union and intersection are commutative
operations; that is
R S = S R, and R S = S R
Both union and intersection can be treated as n-ary
operations applicable to any number of relations as both
are associative operations; that is
R (S T) = (R S) T
(R S) T = R (S T)
The minus operation is not commutative; that is, in general
R – S ≠ S – R
25. Slide 6- 25
Binary Relational Operations: JOIN
JOIN Operation (denoted by )
The sequence of CARTESIAN PRODECT followed by SELECT
is used quite commonly to identify and select related tuples
from two relations
A special operation, called JOIN combines this sequence into
a single operation
This operation is very important for any relational database
with more than a single relation, because it allows us combine
related tuples from various relations
The general form of a join operation on two relations R(A1,
A2, . . ., An) and S(B1, B2, . . ., Bm) is:
R <join condition>S
where R and S can be any relations that result from general
relational algebra expressions.
26. Slide 6- 26
Binary Relational Operations: JOIN (cont.)
Example: Suppose that we want to retrieve the name of the manager of
each department.
To get the manager’s name, we need to combine each DEPARTMENT tuple
with the EMPLOYEE tuple whose SSN value matches the MGRSSN value in
the department tuple.
We do this by using the join operation.
DEPT_MGR DEPARTMENT MGRSSN=SSN EMPLOYEE
MGRSSN=SSN is the join condition
Combines each department record with the employee who manages
the department
The join condition can also be specified as DEPARTMENT.MGRSSN=
EMPLOYEE.SSN
28. Slide 6- 28
Some properties of JOIN
Consider the following JOIN operation:
R(A1, A2, . . ., An) S(B1, B2, . . ., Bm)
R.Ai=S.Bj
Result is a relation Q with degree n + m attributes:
Q(A1, A2, . . ., An, B1, B2, . . ., Bm), in that order.
The resulting relation state has one tuple for each
combination of tuples—r from R and s from S, but only if they
satisfy the join condition r[Ai]=s[Bj]
Hence, if R has nR tuples, and S has nS tuples, then the join
result will generally have less than nR * nS tuples.
Only related tuples (based on the join condition) will appear
in the result.
29. Slide 6- 29
Some properties of JOIN
The general case of JOIN operation is called a Theta-
join: R S
theta
The join condition is called theta
Theta can be any general boolean expression on the
attributes of R and S; for example:
R.Ai<S.Bj AND (R.Ak=S.Bl OR R.Ap<S.Bq)
Most join conditions involve one or more equality
conditions “AND”ed together; for example:
R.Ai=S.Bj AND R.Ak=S.Bl AND R.Ap=S.Bq
30. Slide 6- 30
Binary Relational Operations: EQUIJOIN
EQUIJOIN Operation
The most common use of join involves join conditions
with equality comparisons only
Such a join, where the only comparison operator used
is =, is called an EQUIJOIN.
In the result of an EQUIJOIN we always have one or
more pairs of attributes (whose names need not be
identical) that have identical values in every tuple.
The JOIN seen in the previous example was an
EQUIJOIN.
31. Slide 6- 31
Binary Relational Operations:
NATURAL JOIN Operation
NATURAL JOIN Operation
Another variation of JOIN called NATURAL JOIN — denoted
by * — was created to get rid of the second (superfluous)
attribute in an EQUIJOIN condition.
because one of each pair of attributes with identical values is
superfluous
The standard definition of natural join requires that the two
join attributes, or each pair of corresponding join attributes,
have the same name in both relations
If this is not the case, a renaming operation is applied first.
32. Slide 6- 32
Binary Relational Operations NATURAL JOIN
(contd.)
Example: To apply a natural join on the DNUMBER attributes of
DEPARTMENT and DEPT_LOCATIONS, it is sufficient to write:
DEPT_LOCS DEPARTMENT * DEPT_LOCATIONS
Only attribute with the same name is DNUMBER
An implicit join condition is created based on this attribute:
DEPARTMENT.DNUMBER=DEPT_LOCATIONS.DNUMBER
Another example: Q R(A,B,C,D) * S(C,D,E)
The implicit join condition includes each pair of attributes with the
same name, “AND”ed together:
R.C=S.C AND R.D.S.D
Result keeps only one attribute of each such pair:
Q(A,B,C,D,E)
