Database systems underlie the large majority of business
information systems. Most of those in use today are based on the
relational data model, a way of representing data and data
relationships using only two-dimensional tables. This book covers
relational database theory as well as providing a solid
introduction to SQL, the international standard for the
relational database data manipulation language.

The book begins by reviewing basic concepts of databases and
database design, then turns to creating, populating, and
retrieving data using SQL. Topics such as the relational data
model, normalization, data entities, and Codd's Rules (and why
they are important) are covered clearly and concisely. In
addition, the book looks at the impact of big data on relational
databases and the option of using NoSQL databases for that
purpose.
