+ What is the database? Database is a shared collection of related data which will be used to support the activities of particular organization. Database can be viewed as a repository of data that is defined once and then is accessed by various users. A database has the following properties: + It is a representation of some aspect of the real world. + Database is logical coherent and internally consistent. + Database is designed, built, and populated with data for a specific purpose.

Example : They a used to hold patient details so they can be access from anywhere within a hospital or network of hospital.

+ What is the database management systems ? Database Management System (DBMS) is a collection of programs that enable users to create, maintain database and control all the access to the database. The primary goal of the DBMS is to provide an environment that is both convenient and efficient for user to retrieve and store information.

Application program accesses the data stored in the database by sending requests to.

+ Data Model and Database Schemas Data Model is a collection of concepts that can be used to describe the structure of database. Structure of database means data types, relationships and constraints. The Relational model represents data as relations or tables. Example of a relational schema for supermaket database.

The description of the database which is designed in the early stage and is not expected to change frequently is called the database schema.

+ What is function of the database manager systems? All DBMS have some common functions, such as providing a database view, store and return data,modify database,edit the database, export the report. DBMS is a group of programs is used as an interface between data and users.

Example

+ Classification of Database Systems ? Centralized database system : Data in this kind of system is stored at a single site.

Distributed database sytem: Actual database and DBMS software are distributed in various sites connected by a computer network.

+ How a user can access to the database? When a user wishes to access a database , he make an access request using a particular datamanipulation language understood by the DBMS. How to handle the DBMS after receiving the request :
DBMS receives the request,and checks it for syntax errors. The DBMS then inspects, it turn, the external schema, the conceptual schema,and the mapping between the conceptual schema and the internal schema.
