In the information age today, enormous amount of data is kept in files and databases. The knowledge to manipulate and manage these files is beyond doubt. By using a database package, the students will be able to appreciate the needs for database systems rather than the traditional file systems.

1. Data - pieces of information, usually formatted in a special way

2. Information - ?

3. Database - collection of information organized in such a way

4. Database Management System (DBMS) - collection of programs that enables you to store, modify, and extract information from a database

18

5. Table/Entity/Relation – a distinct object in the organization to be represented in the database

6. Attribute/Field/Column – a property that describes some aspect of the object

7. Row/Record/Tuple – 1 record (1 row) (RDBMS)

8. Relationship – association between entities

9. Cardinality – a quantity of relationship 1:1, 1:M, M:N

10. Schema – overall description of the database

15. Data redundancy – similar attribute/field is repeated at >= 2 more tables

19

Database:

data structure that stores organized information

a collection of information that is organized so that it can easily be accessed, managed, and updated

Table:

a distinct object in the organization to be represented in the database

data structure that organizes information into rows and columns

20

Column:

a property that describes some aspect of the object

Row:

a record

horizontal group of values within a table. It contains values for multiple fields, which are defined by columns

View:

Views represent a subset of the data contained in a table. They can join and simplify multiple tables into one virtual table
