EXPERIMENT NO 1
AIM: To study about database management system (DBMS) and relational database
management system (RDBMS).
Database language engine is the one which interprets the query language and do the necessary
action supplied using the query language. Query optimizer is used to optimize the supplied
query language and identifies the best plan for executing the query and obtaining the result as
fast as it could. Database engine is used to create or manipulate the data in the database
objects like table.
A database management system is the software system that allows users to define, create and
maintain a database and provides controlled access to the data. It is basically a collection of
programs that enables users to store, modify, and extract information from a database as per
the requirements. It is an intermediate layer between programs and the data. Programs access
the DBMS, which then accesses the data. There are different types of DBMS ranging from
small systems that run on personal computers to huge systems that run on mainframes. The
following are main examples of database applications:
A database management system is a piece of software that provides services for accessing a
database, while maintaining all the required features of the data. Commercially available
Database management systems in the market are dbase, FoxPro, IMS and Oracle, MySQL,
SQL Servers and DB2 etc. These systems allow users to create update, and extract
information from their databases.
RDBMS is the abbreviated form of Relational Data Base Management System. It was
introduced in 1970′s. RDBMS avoided the navigation model as in old DBMS and introduced
Relational model. The relational model has relationship between tables using primary keys,
foreign keys and indexes. Thus the fetching and storing of data become faster than the old
Navigational model. So RDBMS is widely used by the enterprises and developers for storing
complex and large amount of data.
A relational DBMS is special system software that is used to manage the organization,
storage, access, security and integrity of data. This specialized software allows application
systems to focus on the user interface, data validation and screen navigation. When there is a
need to add, modify, delete or display data, the application system simply makes a "call" to
the RDBMS.
Although there are many different types of database management systems, relational
databases are by far the most common. Other types include hierarchical databases and
network databases.
A relational database is a digital database whose organization is based on the relational model
of data, as proposed by E.F. Codd in 1970. This model organizes data into one or more tables
(or "relations") of rows and columns, with a unique key for each row. Generally, each entity
type described in a database has its own table, the rows representing instances of that entity
and the columns representing the attribute values describing each instance. Because each row
in a table has its own unique key, rows in other tables that are related to it can be linked to it
by storing the original row's unique key as an attribute of the secondary row (where it is
known as a "foreign key"). Codd showed that data relationships of arbitrary complexity can be
represented using this simple set of concepts. Prior to the advent of this model, databases were
usually hierarchical, and each tended to be organized with a unique mix of indexes, chains,
and pointers. The simplicity of the relational model led to its soon becoming the predominant
type of database.
Virtually all relational database systems use SQL (Structured Query Language) as the
language for querying and maintaining the database.
Advantages of RDBMS
1. Data Structure: The table format is simple and easy for database users to understand
and use. RDBMSs provide data access using a natural structure and organization of the
data. Database queries can search any column for matching entries.
2. Multi-User Access: RDBMSs allow multiple database users to access a database
simultaneously. Built-in locking and transactions management functionality allow
users to access data as it is being changed, prevents collisions between two users
updating the data, and keeps users from accessing partially updated records.
3. Privileges: Authorization and privilege control features in an RDBMS allow the
database administrator to restrict access to authorized users, and grant privileges to
individual users based on the types of database tasks they need to perform.
Authorization can be defined based on the remote client IP address in combination
with user authorization, restricting access to specific external computer systems.
4. Network Access: RDBMSs provide access to the database through a server daemon, a
specialized software program that listens for requests on a network, and allows
database clients to connect to and use the database. Users do not need to be able to log
in to the physical computer system to use the database, providing convenience for the
users and a layer of security for the database. Network access allows developers to
build desktop tools and Web applications to interact with databases.
5. Speed: The relational database model is not the fastest data structure. RDBMS
advantages, such as simplicity, make the slower speed a fair trade-off. Optimizations
built into an RDBMS and the design of the databases, enhance performance, allowing
RDBMSs to perform more than fast enough for most applications and data sets.
Improvements in technology, increasing processor speeds and decreasing memory and
storage costs allow systems administrators to build incredibly fast systems that can
overcome any database performance shortcomings.
6. Maintenance: RDBMSs feature maintenance utilities that provide database
administrators with tools to easily maintain, test, repair and back up the databases
housed in the system. Many of the functions can be automated using built-in
automation in the RDBMS, or automation tools available on the operating system.
7. Language: RDBMSs support a generic language called "Structured Query Language"
(SQL). The SQL syntax is simple, and the language uses Standard English language
keywords and phrasing, making it fairly intuitive and easy to learn. Many RDBMSs
add non-SQL, database-specific keywords, functions and features to the SQL
language.
Disadvantages of RDBMS
1. Cost: One disadvantage of relational databases is the expensive of setting up and
maintaining the database system. In order to set up a relational database, you generally
need to purchase special software. If you are not a programmer, you can use any
number of products to set up a relational database. It does take time to enter in all the
information and set up the program. If your company is large and you need a more
robust database, you will need to hire a programmer to create a relational database
using Structured Query Language (SQL) and a database administrator to maintain the
database once it is built. Regardless of what data you use, you will have to either
import it from other data like text files or Excel spreadsheets, or have the data entered
at the keyboard. No matter the size of your company, if you store legally confidential
or protected information in your database such as health information, social security
numbers or credit card numbers, you will also have to secure your data against
unauthorized access in order to meet regulatory standards.
2. Abundance of Information: Advances in the complexity of information cause
another drawback to relational databases. Relational databases are made for organizing
data by common characteristics. Complex images, numbers, designs and multimedia
products defy easy categorization leading the way for a new type of database called
object-relational database management systems. These systems are designed to handle
the more complex applications and have the ability to be scalable.
3. Structured Limits: Some relational databases have limits on field lengths. When you
design the database, you have to specify the amount of data you can fit into a field.
Some names or search queries are shorter than the actual, and this can lead to data
loss.
4. Isolated Databases: Complex relational database systems can lead to these databases
becoming "islands of information" where the information cannot be shared easily from
one large system to another. Often, with big firms or institutions, you find relational
databases grew in separate divisions differently. For example, maybe the hospital
billing department used one database while the hospital personnel department used a
different database. Getting those databases to "talk" to each other can be a large, and
expensive, undertaking, yet in a complex hospital system, all the databases need to be
involved for good patient and employee care.
• Relationship among tables is maintained in a RDBMS whereas this not the case DBMS as
it is used to manage the database.
• DBMS accepts the ‘flat file’ data that means there is no relation among different data
whereas RDBMS does not accept this type of design.
• DBMS is used for simpler business applications whereas RDBMS is used for more
complex applications.
• Although the foreign key concept is supported by both DBMS and RDBMS but its only
RDBMS that enforces the rules
• RDBMS solution is required by large sets of data whereas small sets of data can be
managed by DBMS.

The tables in the following sections provide a functional summary of SQL statements and are
divided into these categories:
• Data Definition Language (DDL) Statements
• Data Manipulation Language (DML) Statements
• Transaction Control Statements
• Session Control Statements
• System Control Statement
• Embedded SQL Statements
EXPERIMENT NO 3
AIM: Create a database and write the programs to carry out the following
operation:
1. Create a Table.
2. Add a record in the database.
3. Delete a record in the database.
4. Display the record in the database.
5. Update the record in the database.
6. List all the records of database in ascending/descending order.
7. Drop Table.
CREATE TABLE
The CREATE TABLE statement is used to create a table in a database.
Tables are organized into rows and columns; and each table must have a name.
SYNTAX
CREATE TABLE< table_name>
(
<column_name1> data_type(size),
<column_name2> data_type(size),
<column_name3>data_type(size),
....
);
The column_name parameters specify the names of the columns of the table. The data_type
parameter specifies what type of data the column can hold (e.g. varchar, integer, decimal,
date, etc.). The size parameter specifies the maximum length of the column of the table.
INSERT RECORDS
DISPLAY TABLE
SELECT
The SELECT statement is used to select data from a database. The result is stored in a result
table, called the result-set.
SYNTAX:
SELECT * FROM <table_name>;
WHERE CLAUSE
The WHERE clause is used to filter records. The WHERE clause is used to extract only those
records that fulfill a specified criterion.
SYNTAX
DELETE
The DELETE statement is used to delete records in a table. The DELETE statement is used to
delete rows in a table.
SYNTAX
DELETE FROM< table_name> WHERE some_column=some_value;
UPDATE
The UPDATE statement is used to update existing records in a table.
SYNTAX
UPDATE <table_name>
SET column1=value1,column2=value2,... WHERE some_column=some_value;
UPDATED TABLE
ORDER BY KEYWORD
The ORDER BY keyword is used to sort the result-set by one or more columns. The ORDER
BY keyword sorts the records in ascending order by default. To sort the records in a
descending order, you can use the DESC keyword.
SYNTAX
SELECT column_name,column_name FROM table_name ORDER BY
column_name,column_name ASC|DESC;
DROP TABLE
The DROP TABLE statement is used to delete a table.
SYNTAX
DROP TABLE <table_name>;
EXPERIMENT NO 4
AIM: Write SQL commands to add data constraints. (UNIQUE, NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY,FOREIGN KEY, CHECK, IN, BETWEEN & AND)
CREATE A TABLE
SYNTAX
create table <table_name>
( <column_name1> data type(size) data constraint,
<column_name2> data type(size) data constraint,
<column_name3> data type(size) data constraint,
.
);
INSERTION OF ROW
SYNTAX
insert into <table_name> values(value 1,value 2, value 3..........);
UNIQUE
The UNIQUE constraint uniquely identifies each record in a database table.
SYNTAX
create table <table_name>
(<column_name1> datatype(size) unique,
<column_name2> datatype(size),
);
PRIMARY KEY
The PRIMARY KEY constraint uniquely identifies each record in a database table. Primary
keys must contain unique values. A primary key column cannot contain NULL values. Most
tables should have a primary key, and each table can have only ONE primary key.
SYNTAX
create table <table_name> ( <column_name1> datatype(size) primary key, <column_name2>
datatype(size),);
FOREIGN KEY:-
A FOREIGN KEY in one table points to a PRIMARY KEY in another table.
SYNTAX
create table<table_name>(<column_name1> datatype(size) references
<table_name1>(column_name1), <column_name2> datatype(size),);
INSERTION OF VALUES
Violation Of Foreign Key Constraint as value ‘10180’ is not there in the table ‘SALES’.
CHECK
The CHECK constraint is used to limit the value range that can be placed in a column. If you
define a CHECK constraint on a single column it allows only certain values for this column.
If you define a CHECK constraint on a table, it can limit the values in certain columns based
on values in other columns in the row.
SYNTAX
alter table<table_n-name> add check(column_name>or< some value)
IN OPERATOR
EXPERIMENT NO 5
CREATE TABLE
SYNTAX
CREATE TABLE< table_name>(<column_name1> data_type(size),<column_name2>
data_type(size),<column_name3>data_type(size),....);
INSERT RECORDS
SYNTAX
INSERT INTO <table_name> VALUES (value1,value2,value3,...);
DISPLAY TABLE
SYNTAX:
SELECT * FROM <table_name>;
GROUP BY CLAUSE:
The SQL GROUP BY clause is used in collaboration with the SELECT statement to arrange
identical data into groups. The GROUP BY clause follows the WHERE clause in a SELECT
statement and precedes the ORDER BY clause.
SYNTAX
SELECT column1, column2
FROM table_name
WHERE [ conditions ] GROUP BY column1, column2;
HAVING CLAUSE:
The HAVING clause enables you to specify conditions that filter which group results appear
in the final results. The WHERE clause places conditions on the selected columns, whereas
the HAVING clause places conditions on groups created by the GROUP BY clause.
SYNTAX:
SELECT column1, column2
FROM table1, table2
WHERE [ conditions ]
GROUP BY column1, column2
HAVING [ conditions ]
ORDER BY column1, column2
EXPERIMENT NO. 6
AIM: Write commands to implement various SQL operators
1. Arithmetic
2. Comparison
3. Logical
4. String
5. Aggregate
The SQL minus (-) operator is used to subtract one expression or number from another
expression or number.
SQL MULTIPLICATION (*) OPERATOR
The SQL multiply ( * ) operator is used to multiply two or more expressions or numbers.
SQL DIVIDE (/) OPERATOR
The SQL divide ( / ) operator is used to divide one expressions or numbers by another.
OR OPERATOR
For the row to be selected at least one of the conditions must be true.
AND OPERATOR
For a row to be selected all the specified conditions must be true.
NOT OPERATOR
= OPERATOR
Checks if the values of two operands are equal or not, if yes then condition becomes true.
!= OPERATOR
Checks if the values of two operands are equal or not, if values are not equal then condition
becomes true.
< OPERATOR
Checks if the value of left operand is less than the value of right operand, if yes then condition
becomes true.
> OPERATORChecks if the value of left operand is greater than the value of right operand,
if yes then condition becomes true.
<= OPERATOR
Checks if the value of left operand is less than or equal to the value of right operand, if yes
then condition becomes true.
SYNTAX: select <column name> from <table name> where <column name> (>/</=/!
=/<=/>=) value.
EXPRIMENT NO. 7
CREATE TABLE
DISPLAY TABLE
INSERTION OF ROWS
DISPLAY TABLE
The UNION operator selects only distinct values by default. To allow duplicate values, use
the ALL keyword with UNION.
SQL UNION ALL SYNTAX
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 UNION ALL SELECT column_name(s) FROM
table2;
3. SQLMINUS OPERATOR
The SQL MINUS operator is used to return all rows in the first SELECT statement that are
not returned in the second SELECT statement. Each SELECT statement within the MINUS
query must have the same number of fields in the result sets with similar data types.
SQL MINUS SYNTAX
The syntax for the SQL MINUS operator is:
SELECT expression1, expression2, ...expression_n FROM tables
MINUS SELECT expression1, expression2, ...expression_n FROM tables;
4. Intersection in SQL
The SQL INTERSECT clause/operator is used to combine two SELECT statements, but
returns rows only from the first SELECT statement that are identical to a row in the second
SELECT statement. This means INTERSECT returns only common rows returned by the two
SELECT statements. Just as with the UNION operator, the same rules apply when using the
INTERSECT operator. MySQL does not support INTERSECT operator
Syntax:
SELECT column1 [, column2 ]
FROM table1 [, table2 ]
[WHERE condition]
INTERSECT
EXPERIMENT NO. 8
CREATE TABLE
DISPLAY TABLE
SQL VIEW
In SQL, a view is a virtual table based on the result-set of an SQL statement.A view contains
rows and columns, just like a real table. The fields in a view are fields from one or more real
tables in the database. You can add SQL functions, WHERE, and JOIN statements to a view
and present the data as if the data were coming from one single table.
SQL CREATE VIEW SYNTAX
CREATE VIEW view_name AS SELECT column_name(s) FROM table_name WHERE
condition
VIEW V1 CREATED
DISPLAY VIEW V1
The SQL UPDATE VIEW command can be used to modify the data of a view.All views are
not updatable. So, UPDATE command is not applicable to all views. An updatable view is
one which allows performing an UPDATE command on itself without affecting any other
table.
UPADTE VIEW V1
SQL CREATE INDEX STATEMENT
The CREATE INDEX statement is used to create indexes in tables. Indexes allow the
database application to find data fast; without reading the whole table.
SELECTS COMMANDS
EXPERIMENT NO. 9
SYNTAX
SELECT column_name [, column_name ] FROM table1 [, table2 ] WHERE column_name
OPERATOR (SELECT column_name [, column_name ] FROM table1 [, table2 ] [WHERE])
Sub queries also can be used with INSERT statements. The INSERT statement uses the data
returned from the sub query to insert into another table. The selected data in the sub query can
be modified with any of the character, date or number functions.
SYNTAX
INSERT INTO table_name [ (column1 [, column2 ]) ]
SELECT [ *|column1 [, column2 ]
FROM table1 [, table2 ]
[ WHERE VALUE OPERATOR ];
SYNTAX
UPDATE table SET column_name = new_value [ WHERE OPERATOR [ VALUE ]
(SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM TABLE_NAME) [ WHERE) ]
The subquery can be used in conjunction with the DELETE statement like with any other
statements mentioned above.
EXPERIMENT NO. 10
3. INNER JOIN
The INNER JOIN keyword selects all rows from both tables as long as there is a match
between the columns in both tables.
SYNTAX:
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1
INNER JOIN table2 ON table1.column_name=table2.column_name;
4. OUTER JOIN
