Relational Databases
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
Write a customer's address on every order they place and you have created a problem you will not notice for months. Then they move. Now some orders carry the old address and some carry the new one, both are in the same file, and nothing in the data says which is correct. The information has not been lost. It has been duplicated, and duplication is how data becomes untrustworthy.
This lesson explains what a database is, what makes one relational, and the five terms the specification examines: table, record, field, primary key and foreign key. Then it explains the reason the whole design exists. Splitting data across linked tables so that each fact is stored exactly once is what makes redundancy and inconsistency avoidable, and being able to say precisely how it does that is worth more marks than being able to name the parts.
