LETS GET
Q1.WHAT IS DATABASE AND DBMS?
PROBABILITY: Medium
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: DBMS
Explanation:
Database:
• collection of related data which represents some aspect of the real
world can be called as database.
DBMS:
• it stands for Database Management System.
• it is a software for storing and retrieving user's data while considering
appropriate security measures.
• it also consists of a group of programs which manipulate the database.

Q2.WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DBMS?
PROBABILITY: Low
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: DBMS
Explanation:
There are four types of DBMS:
1. Hierarchical database.
2. Network database.
3. Relational database.
4. Object-Oriented database.
- ORACLELAND
Q3. WHAT IS DATA INTEGRITY AND HOW IS IT MAINTAINED IN ORACLE?
PROBABILITY: Low
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: DBMS
Explanation:
Data Integrity:
• Data integrity refers to the accuracy and consistency (validity) of
data over its lifecycle.
It can be maintained in Oracle by:
• enforcing business rules with triggered stored procedures.
• using stored procedures to completely control data access.
• enforcing business rules in the database application code.
• by applying column or object level integrity constraints.
- ORACLELAND
Q4. WHAT IS DATA CONSISTENCY AND HOW IT IS MAINTAINED IN ORACLE?
PROBABILITY: Low
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: DBMS
Explanation:
Data Consistency:
• an assurance that each user sees a consistent view of the data,
including visible changes made by the user's own transactions
and committed transactions of other users.
It can be maintained in Oracle by:
• using a multi version consistency model.
• using various types of locks and transactions.
- ORACLELAND
Q5.WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF CONSTRAINTS IN DBMS?
PROBABILITY: Medium
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: DBMS
Explanation:
There are four types of constraints:
1. Not Null Constraint.
2. Unique Key Constraint.
3. Primary Key Constraint.
4. Foreign Key Constraint.
- ORACLELAND
Q6. WHAT IS DEFERRED CONSTRAINT?
PROBABILITY: Low
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: DBMS
Explanation:
• a deferred constraint is enforced when a transaction is
committed.
• DEFERRABLE clause is used to create such constraint.
• once created, a constraint cannot be changed to DEFERRABLE.
• ... INITIALLY DEFERRED specifies that the constraint is only
checked when a transaction is committed.
- ORACLELAND
Q7.WHAT IS SQL?
PROBABILITY: Medium
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: 0-4 COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: SQL
Explanation:
• SQL stands for Structured Query Language.
• used to communicate with a database.
• the standard language for relational database management
systems.
• used to perform tasks such as update data on a database, or
retrieve data from a database.
- ORACLELAND
Q8. WHAT ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF SQL STATEMENTS?
PROBABILITY: Medium
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: SQL
Explanation: There are six types of sql statements:
1. Data Definition Language (DDL) Statements:
- CREATE .../ ALTER .../ DROP .../RENAME / TRUNCATE/ COMMENT
2. Data Manipulation Language (DML) Statements:
- DELETE / EXPLAIN PLAN / INSERT / LOCK TABLE/ MERGE / SELECT / UPDATE
3. Transaction Control (TCL) Statements:
- COMMIT/ ROLLBACK/ SAVEPOINT / SET TRANSACTION
4. Session Control Statements:
- ALTER SESSION .../SET ROLE ...
5. System Control Statement:
- ALTER SYSTEM...
6. Embedded SQL Statements:
- these statements place DDL, DML, and transaction control statements within a pl/sql program.
- ORACLELAND
Q9.WHAT IS PL/SQL?
PROBABILITY: Medium
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: Any COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: PLSQL
Explanation:
• PL/SQL stands for “ Procedural Language extensions to SQL“.
• introduced to overcome some limitations in SQL and to provide a
more complete programming solutions.
• highly structured, readable and accessible language.
• standard and portable language for Oracle development.
• high-performance, highly integrated database language.
- ORACLELAND
Q10. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SQL AND PL/SQL?
SQL
• is a Structural Query Language
• is a declarative language.
• has no variables.
• can execute a single operation at a time.
• can be embedded in a PL/SQL block.
• is used to write queries, create and execute
DDL and DML statements.
PL/SQL
• is a programming language using SQL
• is a procedural language.
• has variables, data types etc.
• can perform multiple operation at a time.
• can also be embedded in SQL code.
• is used to write program blocks, functions,
procedures, triggers and packages.
PROBABILITY: High
TYPE: Conceptual EXPERIENCE: 0-5 COMPLEXITY: Low
TOPIC: PLSQL
