Fundamentals of RDBMS and Database Designs: Pinal Dave @pinaldave

#1 A relational database consists of tables that represent real-world entities, with rows representing individual records and columns representing attributes. #2 The relational model introduced by Dr. E.F. Codd in 1970 reduced data redundancy and allowed for efficient data retrieval and intuitive data modification. #3 Key concepts include primary keys to uniquely identify rows, foreign keys to enforce referential integrity between tables, and data types defined at the column level.

History Relational Database Model

 1970 Dr. E. F. Codd developed relational database


 Reduce redundancy
 Efficient data retrieval
 Intuitive data modification
Relational Database Model Concepts

 Tables
 A real world entity e.g. Address
 Columns (Fields)
 Attribute of the entity e.g. Street #, City, Zipcode
 Rows (Records)
 Set of values for a single instance of entity e.g. A single address
 Cells
 Intersection of a row and a column

 Cells
 Intersection of a row and a column
Relational Database Model Keys

 Primary Key
 Unique identifier of row
 One per table
 Does not allow NULL
 Single or multiple columns (composite columns)
 Unique Key
 Ensures data is not duplicate
 More than one per table
 Allows one NULL
 Foreign Key
 Columns in a table that refer to a Primary Key of another table
 Enforces referential integrity
 One-to-one
 One-to-many
 Many-to-many
One to One
One to Many
One to Many

Many to Many
Column Definition

 Data type determines the type of information


 String – CHAR, VARCHAR
 Integer – INT
 Float – FLOAT
 Date and time – DATE
 Default Value
 Column containing NULL value
 Auto increment column
Summary in Sixty Seconds

#1 A relational database consists of tables.


#2 A table consists of Rows and Columns.
#3 The intersection of Rows and Columns is
called cell.
#4 Primary Keys uniquely identifies each row
of the table.
#5 Foreign Keys Enforces referential integrity
#6 Defining datatype of the column is one of
the most crucial task of database modeling
