©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.3Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Joined RelationsJoined Relations Join operations take two relations and return as a result another relation. A join operation is a Cartesian product which requires that tuples in the two relations match (under some condition). It also specifies the attributes that are present in the result of the join The join operations are typically used as subquery expressions in the from clause

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.5Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Outer JoinOuter Join An extension of the join operation that avoids loss of information. Computes the join and then adds tuples form one relation that does not match tuples in the other relation to the result of the join. Uses null values.

These additional operations are typically used as subquery expressions in the from clause Join condition – defines which tuples in the two relations match, and what attributes are present in the result of the join. Join type – defines how tuples in each relation that do not match any tuple in the other relation (based on the join condition) are treated.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.12Database System Concepts - 6th Edition ViewsViews In some cases, it is not desirable for all users to see the entire logical model (that is, all the actual relations stored in the database.) Consider a person who needs to know an instructors name and department, but not the salary. This person should see a relation described, in SQL, by select ID, name, dept_name from instructor A view provides a mechanism to hide certain data from the view of certain users. Any relation that is not of the conceptual model but is made visible to a user as a “virtual relation” is called a view.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.13Database System Concepts - 6th Edition View DefinitionView Definition A view is defined using the create view statement which has the form create view v as < query expression > where <query expression> is any legal SQL expression. The view name is represented by v. Once a view is defined, the view name can be used to refer to the virtual relation that the view generates. View definition is not the same as creating a new relation by evaluating the query expression Rather, a view definition causes the saving of an expression; the expression is substituted into queries using the view.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.14Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Example ViewsExample Views A view of instructors without their salary create view faculty as select ID, name, dept_name from instructor Find all instructors in the Biology department select name from faculty where dept_name = ‘Biology’ Create a view of department salary totals create view departments_total_salary(dept_name, total_salary) as select dept_name, sum (salary) from instructor group by dept_name;

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.15Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Views Defined Using Other ViewsViews Defined Using Other Views create view physics_fall_2009 as select course.course_id, sec_id, building, room_number from course, section where course.course_id = section.course_id and course.dept_name = ’Physics’ and section.semester = ’Fall’ and section.year = ’2009’; create view physics_fall_2009_watson as select course_id, room_number from physics_fall_2009 where building= ’Watson’;

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.16Database System Concepts - 6th Edition View ExpansionView Expansion Expand use of a view in a query/another view create view physics_fall_2009_watson as (select course_id, room_number from (select course.course_id, building, room_number from course, section where course.course_id = section.course_id and course.dept_name = ’Physics’ and section.semester = ’Fall’ and section.year = ’2009’) where building= ’Watson’;

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.17Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Views Defined Using Other ViewsViews Defined Using Other Views One view may be used in the expression defining another view A view relation v1 is said to depend directly on a view relation v2 if v2 is used in the expression defining v1 A view relation v1 is said to depend on view relation v2 if either v1 depends directly to v2 or there is a path of dependencies from v1 to v2 A view relation v is said to be recursive if it depends on itself.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.18Database System Concepts - 6th Edition View ExpansionView Expansion A way to define the meaning of views defined in terms of other views. Let view v1 be defined by an expression e1 that may itself contain uses of view relations. View expansion of an expression repeats the following replacement step: repeat Find any view relation vi in e1 Replace the view relation vi by the expression defining vi until no more view relations are present in e1 As long as the view definitions are not recursive, this loop will terminate

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.19Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Update of a ViewUpdate of a View Add a new tuple to faculty view which we defined earlier insert into faculty values (’30765’, ’Green’, ’Music’); This insertion must be represented by the insertion of the tuple (’30765’, ’Green’, ’Music’, null) into the instructor relation

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.20Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Some Updates cannot be TranslatedSome Updates cannot be Translated UniquelyUniquely create view instructor_info as select ID, name, building from instructor, department where instructor.dept_name= department.dept_name; insert into instructor_info values (’69987’, ’White’, ’Taylor’);  which department, if multiple departments in Taylor?  what if no department is in Taylor? Most SQL implementations allow updates only on simple views The from clause has only one database relation. The select clause contains only attribute names of the relation, and does not have any expressions, aggregates, or distinct specification. Any attribute not listed in the select clause can be set to null The query does not have a group by or having clause.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.21Database System Concepts - 6th Edition And Some Not at AllAnd Some Not at All create view history_instructors as select * from instructor where dept_name= ’History’; What happens if we insert (’25566’, ’Brown’, ’Biology’, 100000) into history_instructors?

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.22Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Materialized Views Materializing a view: create a physical table containing all the tuples in the result of the query defining the view If relations used in the query are updated, the materialized view result becomes out of date Need to maintain the view, by updating the view whenever the underlying relations are updated.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.23Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Transactions Unit of work Atomic transaction either fully executed or rolled back as if it never occurred Isolation from concurrent transactions Transactions begin implicitly Ended by commit work or rollback work But default on most databases: each SQL statement commits automatically Can turn off auto commit for a session (e.g. using API) In SQL:1999, can use: begin atomic …. end  Not supported on most databases

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.24Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Integrity ConstraintsIntegrity Constraints Integrity constraints guard against accidental damage to the database, by ensuring that authorized changes to the database do not result in a loss of data consistency. A checking account must have a balance greater than $10,000.00 A salary of a bank employee must be at least $4.00 an hour A customer must have a (non-null) phone number

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.25Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Integrity Constraints on a Single RelationIntegrity Constraints on a Single Relation not null primary key unique check (P), where P is a predicate

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.26Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Not Null and Unique ConstraintsNot Null and Unique Constraints not null Declare name and budget to be not null name varchar(20) not null budget numeric(12,2) not null unique ( A1, A2, …, Am) The unique specification states that the attributes A1, A2, … Am form a candidate key. Candidate keys are permitted to be null (in contrast to primary keys).

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.27Database System Concepts - 6th Edition The check clauseThe check clause check (P) where P is a predicate Example: ensure that semester is one of fall, winter, spring or summer: create table section ( course_id varchar (8), sec_id varchar (8), semester varchar (6), year numeric (4,0), building varchar (15), room_number varchar (7), time slot id varchar (4), primary key (course_id, sec_id, semester, year), check (semester in (’Fall’, ’Winter’, ’Spring’, ’Summer’)) );

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.28Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Referential IntegrityReferential Integrity Ensures that a value that appears in one relation for a given set of attributes also appears for a certain set of attributes in another relation. Example: If “Biology” is a department name appearing in one of the tuples in the instructor relation, then there exists a tuple in the department relation for “Biology”. Let A be a set of attributes. Let R and S be two relations that contain attributes A and where A is the primary key of S. A is said to be a foreign key of R if for any values of A appearing in R these values also appear in S.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.29Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Cascading Actions in Referential IntegrityCascading Actions in Referential Integrity create table course ( course_id char(5) primary key, title varchar(20), dept_name varchar(20) references department ) create table course ( … dept_name varchar(20), foreign key (dept_name) references department on delete cascade on update cascade, . . . ) alternative actions to cascade: set null, set default

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.30Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Integrity Constraint Violation DuringIntegrity Constraint Violation During TransactionsTransactions E.g. create table person ( ID char(10), name char(40), mother char(10), father char(10), primary key ID, foreign key father references person, foreign key mother references person) How to insert a tuple without causing constraint violation ? insert father and mother of a person before inserting person OR, set father and mother to null initially, update after inserting all persons (not possible if father and mother attributes declared to be not null) OR defer constraint checking (next slide)

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.31Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Complex Check ClausesComplex Check Clauses check (time_slot_id in (select time_slot_id from time_slot)) why not use a foreign key here? Every section has at least one instructor teaching the section. how to write this? Unfortunately: subquery in check clause not supported by pretty much any database Alternative: triggers (later) create assertion <assertion-name> check <predicate>; Also not supported by anyone

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.32Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Built-in Data Types in SQLBuilt-in Data Types in SQL date: Dates, containing a (4 digit) year, month and date Example: date ‘2005-7-27’ time: Time of day, in hours, minutes and seconds. Example: time ‘09:00:30’ time ‘09:00:30.75’ timestamp: date plus time of day Example: timestamp ‘2005-7-27 09:00:30.75’ interval: period of time Example: interval ‘1’ day Subtracting a date/time/timestamp value from another gives an interval value Interval values can be added to date/time/timestamp values

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.33Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Index CreationIndex Creation create table student (ID varchar (5), name varchar (20) not null, dept_name varchar (20), tot_cred numeric (3,0) default 0, primary key (ID)) create index studentID_index on student(ID) Indices are data structures used to speed up access to records with specified values for index attributes e.g. select * from student where ID = ‘12345’ can be executed by using the index to find the required record, without looking at all records of student More on indices in Chapter 11

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.34Database System Concepts - 6th Edition User-Defined TypesUser-Defined Types create type construct in SQL creates user-defined type create type Dollars as numeric (12,2) final create table department (dept_name varchar (20), building varchar (15), budget Dollars);

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.35Database System Concepts - 6th Edition DomainsDomains create domain construct in SQL-92 creates user-defined domain types create domain person_name char(20) not null Types and domains are similar. Domains can have constraints, such as not null, specified on them. create domain degree_level varchar(10) constraint degree_level_test check (value in (’Bachelors’, ’Masters’, ’Doctorate’));

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.36Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Large-Object TypesLarge-Object Types Large objects (photos, videos, CAD files, etc.) are stored as a large object: blob: binary large object -- object is a large collection of uninterpreted binary data (whose interpretation is left to an application outside of the database system) clob: character large object -- object is a large collection of character data When a query returns a large object, a pointer is returned rather than the large object itself.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.37Database System Concepts - 6th Edition AuthorizationAuthorization Forms of authorization on parts of the database: Read - allows reading, but not modification of data. Insert - allows insertion of new data, but not modification of existing data. Update - allows modification, but not deletion of data. Delete - allows deletion of data. Forms of authorization to modify the database schema Index - allows creation and deletion of indices. Resources - allows creation of new relations. Alteration - allows addition or deletion of attributes in a relation. Drop - allows deletion of relations.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.38Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Authorization Specification in SQLAuthorization Specification in SQL The grant statement is used to confer authorization grant <privilege list> on <relation name or view name> to <user list> <user list> is: a user-id public, which allows all valid users the privilege granted A role (more on this later) Granting a privilege on a view does not imply granting any privileges on the underlying relations. The grantor of the privilege must already hold the privilege on the specified item (or be the database administrator).

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.39Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Privileges in SQLPrivileges in SQL select: allows read access to relation,or the ability to query using the view Example: grant users U1, U2, and U3 select authorization on the instructor relation: grant select on instructor to U1, U2, U3 insert: the ability to insert tuples update: the ability to update using the SQL update statement delete: the ability to delete tuples. all privileges: used as a short form for all the allowable privileges

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.40Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Revoking Authorization in SQLRevoking Authorization in SQL The revoke statement is used to revoke authorization. revoke <privilege list> on <relation name or view name> from <user list> Example: revoke select on branch from U1, U2, U3 <privilege-list> may be all to revoke all privileges the revokee may hold. If <revokee-list> includes public, all users lose the privilege except those granted it explicitly. If the same privilege was granted twice to the same user by different grantees, the user may retain the privilege after the revocation. All privileges that depend on the privilege being revoked are also revoked.

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.41Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Roles create role instructor; grant instructor to Amit; Privileges can be granted to roles: grant select on takes to instructor; Roles can be granted to users, as well as to other roles create role teaching_assistant grant teaching_assistant to instructor;  Instructor inherits all privileges of teaching_assistant Chain of roles create role dean; grant instructor to dean; grant dean to Satoshi;

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.42Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Authorization on ViewsAuthorization on Views create view geo_instructor as (select * from instructor where dept_name = ’Geology’); grant select on geo_instructor to geo_staff Suppose that a geo_staff member issues select * from geo_instructor; What if geo_staff does not have permissions on instructor? creator of view did not have some permissions on instructor?

©Silberschatz, Korth and Sudarshan4.43Database System Concepts - 6th Edition Other Authorization FeaturesOther Authorization Features references privilege to create foreign key grant reference (dept_name) on department to Mariano; why is this required? transfer of privileges grant select on department to Amit with grant option; revoke select on department from Amit, Satoshi cascade; revoke select on department from Amit, Satoshi restrict; Etc. read Section 4.6 for more details we have omitted here.
