This block is concerned with the database lifecycle, which describes the stages a database goes through, from the time the need for a database is established until it is withdrawn from use. This block applies the practice developed in Block 3 to systematically develop, implement and maintain a database design that supports the information requirements of an enterprise. It presents a simple framework for database development and maintenance.This is a very practical block and will require you to write and execute SQL statements for which you will need access to a computer installed with the course software (order code M359/CDR01) and database cards Scenarios and Hospital conceptual data model (order code M359/DBCARDS)

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of five workshops symposia, held at the 39th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, ER 2020, which were supposed to be held in Vienna, Austria, in November 2020, but were held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic instead. The 20 papers promote and disseminate research on theories of concepts underlying conceptual modeling, methods and tools for developing and communicating conceptual models, techniques for transforming conceptual models into effective implementations, and the impact of conceptual modeling techniques on databases, business strategies and information systems. The following workshops are included in this volume: First Workshop on Conceptual Modeling Meets Artificial Intelligence and Data-Driven Decision Making (CMAI); First International Workshop on Conceptual Modeling for Life Sciences (CMLS); Second Workshop on Conceptual Modeling, Ontologies and (Meta)data Management for Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) Data (CMOMM4FAIR); First Workshop on Conceptual Modeling for NoSQL Data Stores (CoMoNoS); and Third International Workshop on Empirical Methods in Conceptual Modeling (EmpER).

The rapidly increasing volume of information contained in relational databases places a strain on databases, performance, and maintainability: DBAs are under greater pressure than ever to optimize database structure for system performance and administration. Physical Database Design discusses the concept of how physical structures of databases affect performance, including specific examples, guidelines, and best and worst practices for a variety of DBMSs and configurations. Something as simple as improving the table index design has a profound impact on performance. Every form of relational database, such as Online Transaction Processing (OLTP), Enterprise Resource Management (ERP), Data Mining (DM), or Management Resource Planning (MRP), can be improved using the methods provided in the book. The first complete treatment on physical database design, written by the authors of the seminal, Database Modeling and Design: Logical Design, Fourth Edition Includes an introduction to the major concepts of physical database design as well as detailed examples, using methodologies and tools most popular for relational databases today: Oracle, DB2 (IBM), and SQL Server (Microsoft) Focuses on physical database design for exploiting B+tree indexing, clustered indexes, multidimensional clustering (MDC), range partitioning, shared nothing partitioning, shared disk data placement, materialized views, bitmap indexes, automated design tools, and more!

The topic of NoSQL databases has recently emerged, to face the Big Data challenge, namely the ever increasing volume of data to be handled. It is now recognized that relational databases are not appropriate in this context, implying that new database models and techniques are needed. This book presents recent research works, covering the following basic aspects: semantic data management, graph databases, and big data management in cloud environments. The chapters in this book report on research about the evolution of basic concepts such as data models, query languages, and new challenges regarding implementation issues.
