the database and end users or application program, ensuring that data is
consistently organized and remains easily accessible.
Detailed Course Content
– Introduction Database Concepts
– The Entity Relationship Model (the most common approach to conceptual database
design)
– The Relational Data Model –Relations –Integrity Constraints (keys, foreign keys, etc.)
– Logical Database Design (ER to relational schemas)
– SQL: Querying and Manipulating Data –SQL Data Definition Language
– Storage and File Structure
– DBMS Backup and Recovery
– Transaction Management and Concurrency Control
DBMS and
Telecommunication Industry
– Any telecommunication company cannot even think about their business
without DBMS. DBMS is must for these companies to store the call details and
monthly post paid bills.
