The differences in SQL and Relational Algebra are not that many. In fact, they are pretty much the same thing. Both of them have commands that need to be evaluated in order to get a result or a new table. In the SQL, we have commands that need to be followed step by step. For example, the first thing we need to know if we need to join tables. After that, we need to know what columns or fields we are putting as a result, then what table or tables are those columns coming from, and last if there…
Being and active duty member of the United States Coast Guard, I conduct multi-mission maritime services throughout the globe. I save lives, provide a safe transportation system, protect the environment, enforce laws and protect our national security. Over the years, these services have caused a demand for information system to revolutionize. These advances are needed to analyze and interpret data to coordinate responses to emergencies, track vital information and train personnel. One…
Task 9 COMPARE the usefulness of MySQL and QBE Query by example is a language used for relational databases like SQL. Its development was parallel to that of SQL’s as a database language. It was originally only able to retrieve data from a database, it was then later updated to do other operations like insert, update and delete data from a relational database. It is easier and more productive than SQL as you do not need to remember the finer details of the language as you can easily select…
A database object in a relational database is a data structure used to either store or reference data. The most common object that people interact with is the table. Other objects are indexes, stored procedures, sequences, views and many more. When a database object is created, a new object type cannot be created because all the various object types created are restricted by the very nature, or source code, of the relational database model being used, such as Oracle, SQL Server or Access. What…
(Connolly, 2003) the database is “A shared collection of logically related data, and a description of this data, designed to meet the information needs of an organization”. The Database Management System (DBMS) is software that enables users to define, create, maintain and control access to the database. The database has identified three levels of abstraction. All these three levels will have different aspects and they are as follows: • Physical or external level- The database system can show…
Data integrity ensures that data is ultimately accurate. This is important when trying to analyze data that is stored in the database or data warehouse. Inaccurate data will lead to false results in reporting and analytics that will affect any business decisions that need to be made. When dealing with data integrity, having the full or complete set of data is a necessity. If only half or some of the data is entered than it cannot be considered accurate. There are several ways to ensure that data…
Database Driven Organisations To initiate about databases, they are valuable across the world by people as individuals or predominantly by businesses for various reasons in which I will evaluate below. The title derives from incorporating any amounts of data from small to large scaled into a base, a base is a foundation that brings this data into one area (usually software) for ease of access, management, processing and locating in an organised manner. Figure 1: Yell, (2016), Wok & Go Yell…
the complexity of buying and keeping the software and infrastructure beneath it. Every now and then, PaaS is used to increase the skills of applications evolved as SaaS. While earlier application development needed hardware, an operating system, a database, middleware, web servers, and different software, with PaaS…
When creating an Oracle database one must consider what type of performance and needs you will need to keep your Real Application Cluster (RAC) environment operating at peak instances. When an Oracle database spans across multiple instances on different servers with shared data files. When the database spans across several hardware systems but it will appear as a single combined database within the application. Real Application Cluster allows the commodity to be utilized in way that they could…
processing and output of information and data. Data bases are widely used in the world by different organisations, it is mostly used for its relational database as it uses key fields to link different data in tables which then are related to each other with easy access, this is mostly used to generate project plans and estimating future costs. Operational databases are used to store…
