Aspects of Implementation
 Creating...
 Tables
 Domains
 Indexes
 Views

Create Table
 The various ‘create table’ statements will be run as part of a script.
 Any domains referred to, if they are created as separate objects in the database,
will need to be created first.

Create Domain
 Explicitly create a domain:
 Create domain Allowable_Colours as Char
 Default ‘Red’
 Check (Value in (‘Red’,’Blue’,’Green’));

Types of Constraints
 Referential integrity
 Propagation constraints
 Domain constraints
 Table constraints
 Plus...
 Constraint Violation

Referential Integrity Constraint
Create table workers
(emp_no number(5) not null,
first_name varchar(30),
last_name varchar(30),
job_title varchar(30),
age number(3),
dept_no number(5),
primary key emp_no,
foreign key (dept_no) references

Propagation Constraint
 What happens if we delete a Boat from our Boat Hire database?
 There are lots of Rental records that reference it. What happens to
them?

Table with Propagation Constraint
Create Table Rental
(BoatID number NOT NULL,
CustomerID number NOT NULL,
RentalStartDate date NOT NULL,
RentalEndDate date NOT NULL,
Primary Key (BoatID, CustomerID, RentalStartDate)
Foreign Key (CustomerID) REFERENCES Customer(CustomerID),
Foreign Key (BoatID) REFERENCES Boat (BoatID)
On delete no action
On update cascade);

Options for Propagation
 No action
 Cascade
 Set Default
 Set Null

Domain Constraints
 Boat Type could be enforced as...
 a check constraint
 separate domain using Create Domain statement
 as a foreign key to another table

Check Constraint
Create Table Boat
BoatName varchar (30) NOT NULL,
BoatType varchar (20),
Primary Key (BoatID)
Check (BoatType in ‘Yacht’,’Cruiser’,’Rower’));

As a Separate Domain
 Create Domain BoatType As varchar(20)
 Default ‘Yacht’
 Check (Value in (‘Yacht’,’Cruiser’,’Rower’));
 The table’Boat’ will set the BoatType attribute as this domain
BoatType. Create Table Boat
BoatTypeCode BoatType,
Primary Key (BoatID));

As a Separate Table
Create Table BoatType
(BoatTypeCode Varchar(3),
BoatTypeDescription Varchar(20)
Primary Key (BoatTypeCode));
With the corresponding Foreign Key in Boat
Create Table Boat
BoatTypeCode varchar (3),
Primary Key (BoatID)
Foreign Key (BoatTypeCode) References BoatType;

Table Constraints
Create Table Rental
CustomerID number NOT NULL,
RentalStartDate date NOT NULL,
RentalEndDate date NOT NULL
Constraint MaximumRentals
Check(Not Exists(Select BoatID
From Rentals
Group By BoatID
Having Count(*) >10)),
Primary Key (BoatID, CustomerID, RentalStartDate)
Foreign Key (CustomerID) REFERENCES Customer(CustomerID),
Foreign Key (BoatID) REFERENCES Boat (BoatID)
On delete no action
On update cascade);

Inserting Data
 The basic SQL feature for inserting multiple rows:
 INSERT INTO ''TABLE'' (''column-name'', [''column-name', ...])
 VALUES (''1st row value a'',"1st row value b"),
 (''2nd row value a', "2nd row value b"),
 ...
 Example
 Insert into boats (boatID, boatName)
 Values (1,'Esmerelda'),
 (2,'Missy'),
 (3,'Lord George');

Data Loading Tools
 Bulk insert in SQL server
 http://sqlserver2000.databases.aspfaq.com/how-do-i-load-
text-or-csv-file-data-into-sql-server.html
 Oracle SQL loader
 http://oreilly.com/catalog/orsqlloader/chapter/ch01.html
 My-SQL uses something called 'Bulk Insert'

Oracle
 For many years, Oracle was the largest market share AND largest by value.
 It was challenged recently by MySQL.

Support for Languages
 Java Programming – allowing sophisticated manipulation
of data using the logic of a programming language
 XML – allowing development of own tags so capable of
transmitting data in almost any format

Support for...
 Distributed database features
 Advanced security
 Data warehousing
 Internet ready features

Objects
 Tables, indexes, views, domains...
 More complex objects with internal structure
 PL/SQL
 Stored functions
 Stored procedures
 Triggers

Oracle Architecture
 Database
 Database Instance
 Logical and Physical structure

Logical Structure of Oracle
 Tables spaces – logical storage units that contain the other objects,
which have memory divided into blocks, extents, and segments.
 Database schemas contain or own the objects like tables.
 Definition of users

Physical Structure of Oracle
 Datafiles
Database datafiles are physical files stored on disk. These files are used to store data on disk.
Database datafiles are only written to by the DBWR processes
 Redo logs
Like a tape recorder that records every change in the Oracle database. As changes occur, they
are regularly recorded in the online redo logs, just like you might record a movie on your VCR.
 Control files
The Control File of the database is a binary file that contains a great deal of database
information. The control file contains the database name, data about the database log files.
Oracle cannot function without valid control files.

Oracle Instance
 Contains all the processes and memory areas.
 A database instance is a set of memory structures that manage database files
 The instance manages its associated data and serves the users of the database.
 Also contains...

Oracle Instance
- System Global Area: When an instance is started, Oracle Database allocates a
memory area called the SGA.
- Program Global Area: A PGA is a memory region that contains data and control
information for a server process. It is no shared memory created by Oracle
Database when a server process is started
- User Processes: User roles and user management
