About the book:

Data are valuable assets of the organization. Database is a key component of the information systems in business. Database technology is critically important to business. This book is designed for business students who study database technology for data resource management.

The database management systems are powerful tools for constructing and accessing databases. Currently, many user-friendly end-user oriented relational database management systems are available on the commercial software market or are accessible as open source software products. However, people often do not fully realize the importance of understanding accurate concepts of database. In fact, a poorly designed database or misuse of database management systems would do more harm than good for the organization. The objective of this book is to help students understand the precise concepts of database and develop practical skills of database design, implementation, and application. Upon the completion of study of this book, students should be able to build and to manage databases in a professional way. More importantly, students should be able to develop their independent learning ability to learn advanced features of database design, implementation, application, and management.
