  1. INTEGRITY Enforcing integrity in Oracle

  2. Oracle Tables mrobbert owner owner granted access

  3. Correct data types?Within rangesAny data integrity issues? Is the data correct?

  4. Is the data consistent? • Is the data consistent between tables? • Are the same values equivalent • Do foreign keys reference existent primary keys • Has logical consistency been maintained?

  5. How do we maintain correct, consistent data ? • Data Integrity Rules • Referential Integrity Rules • Business Rules

  6. Where do we place the constraints? • Base Tables • Constraints which always apply • Will always be enforced by DBMS • Views • Structure to meet needs • Only enforced when data accessed through view • Front end tool • more constraints avaiable • easier to fomrulate • only enforced if tool is used • lack of centralized control

  7. Base Tables • CREATE TABLE Command • makes base tables • base tables is data structure stored on DASD • All columns must have unique name • Primary key not always required syntactically but needed to establish relationships • SQL verifies • syntax • availability of tablespace • uniqueness of name • creator has proper authorization

  8. VIEWS • Virtual Table - Logical representation of another table or combination of tables. • CREATE VIEW viewname AS (SELECT ...) • Usage • provide security • hide data complexity • reduce syntactic complexity • present different perspective

  9. Operations on Views • Query • Standard select statement • Insert • Delete • SOME views may be used for updating • single table with view containing primary key • all not null fields included in view • views created from joining multiple tables usually do not permit updates

  10. SQL DDL • CREATE SEQUENCE • sequential values • CREATE SEQUENCE seqname INCREMENT BY 1 START WITH 1000 • INSERT INTO tablename VALUES (..., seqname.NEXTVAL,...) • DROP SEQUENCE, DROP INDEX, DROP VIEW

  11. Index • performance enhancer • CREATE INDEX indexnameON tablename (column) • Single or multiple indexes on a table through the selection of one or many columns containing unique data values. • Concatenation of columns to assure uniqueness

  12. Index con’t • Indexes automatically maintained and used by system • Trade off - access time vs update time • Unique index • CREATE UNIQUE INDEX indexnameON tablename(attribute)
