Description

Databases and Transaction Processing presents the conceptual and engineering principles underlying the design and implementation of database and transaction processing applications. In contrast with other texts in this area that focus on how to implement the database management system itself, this text emphasizes how to build database applications, since many more students will be implementing applications than will be building DBMSs. In order to provide a solid foundation for these principles, the book thoroughly presents the theory underlying relational databases and relational query languages.

This book covers the material traditionally taught in an introductory course in database systems: the relational model, query languages (including SQL, QBE, relational algebra, and relational calculus), normalization theory, and query processing.

The book also contains advanced database material not in other intro texts. Object databases, XML, and document processing on the web are given extensive coverage. Together with additional material on distributed databases, CORBA, OLAP, and data mining, the latter part of the book provides the basis for an advanced course on databases.

The text also covers transaction processing in sufficient depth that an entire course can be devoted to the subject. In addition to discussing issues related to building transactions and ACID properties, it describes TP monitors, the architecture of centralized and distributed transaction processing systems, and the transactional issues related to building correct and efficient database applications.

Features

  • Presents traditional material with an emphasis on how to build database applications.
  • Covers completely the traditional DBMS theory of the relational model and associated languages.
  • Provides extensive material on the “real-world” uses of SQL in host language programs, including embedded SQL, SQL/PSM, ODBC, JDBC, and SQLJ.
  • Includes extensive coverage of the transaction model and its use in implementing transaction processing applications.
  • Motivates application of the material via a running case study, “The Student Registration System,” which takes readers through the design, implementation, and testing of a DBMS application.
  • Discusses the important software engineering issues that arise when implementing transaction processing applications.
  • Presents in-depth coverage of object and object-relational databases.
  • Covers current topics in databases, including CORBA, OLAP, data mining, distributed databases, and triggers.
