Practitioner Perspective
While remaining current, this text focuses on what leading practitioners say is most important for database developers to help students gain the skills needed to be successful in the workplace. To ensure that the book covers fundamentals and mindsets that lead to long-term career success, the authors draw on expert knowledge:
- The Data Management Association
- The Data Warehousing Institute
- Leading consultants
- Technology leaders
- Authors of articles in the most widely read professional publications
OTHER TOPICS OF DISTINCTION
Instructor Flexibility
The authors have provided flexibility for instructors who would like to introduce SQL early in the course.
- First, core SQL knowledge is covered in depth.
- Second, SQL examples are included in early chapters.
- Third, the two main SQL chapters can be covered early in the course.
- Finally, SQL is used throughout the book to illustrate on-line analytical processing, webpage connections, and accessing relational databases from object-oriented development environments.
Chapter 12: Data Quality and Integration
Chapter 12 has been added covering data quality and database processing accuracy to keep students up to date with what is happening in business. These topics are extremely important with the national and international regulations such as:
- Sarbanes-Oxley
- Basel II
- COSI
- HIPPAA
Object-Oriented Information Systems
This edition contains a revised chapter and appendix, linking object-oriented information systems development environments with the mainstream technology for maintaining organizational data–relational databases, and in the process dealing with significant paradigm differences between object-oriented and relational frameworks. Students will learn the latest with:
- Java
- MicrosoftNet
Significant Update to Chapter 11
The data warehousing chapter has been significantly updated and shortened by focusing more on the design of the database component of data warehousing and by moving the discussion of the process of extracting, transforming, and loading a data warehousing into the new chapter on data quality and integration.
