CONCEPTS OF RDBMS, , , , , , , , , Management System (RDBMS) provides a comprehensive, and integrated approach to information management., _ A relational model provides the basis for a relational database. A relational model, s three aspects:, » Structures, © Operations 2, * Integrity miles ___ Structures consist of a collection of objects or relations that store data. An example, _ of relation is a table, you can store information in a table and use the table to retrieve, _ and modify data., = Operations are used to manipulate data and structures in a database. When using, f s. You must adheré to a predefined set of integrity tules., , Integrity rules are laws that go allowed on data in a database., , , , , , , , Row, Column, Field, Primary key, Foreign key, , eee eee, , , , 1>14
