1、外文原文Management Center of MySQLAuthors: Lauderdale, JohnTsang, Danny H. K.Baciu, George Issue Date: 2006 Citation: Proceedings of IEEE Visual 96, Melbourne, Australia, February 2006, p. 447-458Database (sometimes spelled database) is also called an electronic database, referring to any collections of

2、 data, or information, that is specially organized for rapid search and retrieval by a computer. Databases are structured to facilitate the storage, retrieval, modification and deletion of data in conjunction with various data-processing operations. Database can be stored on magnetic disk or tape, o

3、ptical disk, or some other secondary storage device.A database consists of a file or a set of files. The information in the these files may be broken down into records, each of which consists of one or more fields are the basic units of data storage, and each field typically contains information per

4、taining to one aspect or attribute of the entity described by the database. Using keywords and various sorting commands, users can rapidly search, rearrange, group, and select the fields in many records to retrieve or create reports on particular aggregates of data.Database records and files must be

5、 organized to allow retrieval of the information. Early system were arranged sequentially (i.e., alphabetically, numerically, or chronologically); the development of direct-access storage devices made possible random access to data via indexes. Queries are the main way users retrieve database inform

6、ation. Typically the user provides a string of characters, and the computer searches the database for a corresponding sequence and provides the source materials in which those characters appear. A user can request, for example, all records in which the content of the field for a persons last name is

7、 the word Smith.In flat databases, records are organized according to a simple list of entities; many simple databases for personal computers are flat in structure. The records in hierarchical databases are organized in a treelike structure, with each level of records branching off into a set of sma

8、ller categories. Unlike hierarchical databases, which provide single links between sets of records at different levels, network databases create multiple linkages between sets by placing links, or pointers, to one set of records in another; the speed and versatility of network databases have led to

9、their wide use in business. Relational databases are used where associations among files or records cannot be expressed by links; a simple flat list becomes one table, or “relation”, and multiple relations can be mathematically associated to yield desired information. Object-oriented databases store

10、 and manipulate more complex data structures, called “objects”, which are organized into hierarchical classes that may inherit properties from classes higher in the chain; this database structure is the most flexible and adaptable.The information in many databases consists of natural-language texts

11、of documents; Small databases can be used by individuals at home. These and larger databases have become increasingly important in business life. Typical commercial applications include airline reservations, production management, medical records in hospitals, and legal records of insurance companie

12、s. The largest databases are usually maintained by governmental agencies, business organizations, and universities. These databases may contain texts of such materials as catalogs of various kinds. Reference databases contain bibliographies or indexes that serve as guides to the location of informat

13、ion in books, periodicals, and other published literature. Thousands of these publicly accessible databases now exist, covering topics ranging from law, medicine, and engineering to news and current events, games, classified advertisements, and instructional courses. Professionals such as scientists

14、, doctors, lawyers, financial analysts, stockbrokers, and researchers of all types increasingly rely on these databases for quick, selective access to large volumes of information.DBMS Structuring TechniquesSequential, direct, and other file processing approaches are used to organize and structure d

15、ata in single files. But a DBMS is able to integrate data elements from several files to answer specific user inquiries for information. That is, the DBMS is able to structure and tie together the logically related data from several large files. Logical Structures. Identifying these logical relation

16、ships is a job of the data administrator. A data definition language is used for this purpose. The DBMS may then employ one of the following logical structuring techniques during storage, access, and retrieval operations.List structures. In this logical approach, records are linked together by the u

17、se of pointers. A pointer is a data item in one record that identifies the storage location of another logically related record. Records in a customer master file, for example, will contain the name and address of each customer, and each record in this file is identified by an account number. During

18、 an accounting period, a customer may buy a number of items on different days. Thus, the company may maintain an invoice file to reflect these transactions. A list structure could be used in this situation to show the unpaid invoices at any given time. Each record in the customer in the invoice file

19、 includes a field, it pointed to the location of the first invoice record in invoice file, this invoice record, in turn, would be linked to next invoices for the customer. The last invoice in the chain would be identified by the use of a special character as a pointer.Hierarchical (tree) structures.

20、 In this logical approach, data units are structured in multiple levels that graphically resemble an “upside down” tree with the root at the top and the branches formed below. Theres a superior-subordinate relationship in a hierarchical (tree) structure. Below the single-root data component are subo

21、rdinate elements or nodes, in turn, each element or branch in this structure below the root has only a single owner. Thus, a customer owns an invoice, and the invoice has subordinate items. The branches in a tree structure are not connected.Network Structures. Unlike the tree approach, which does no

22、t permit the connection of branches, the network structure permits the connection of the nodes in a multidirectional manner. Thus, each node may have several owners and may, in turn, own any number of other data units. Data management software permits the extraction of the needed information from su

23、ch a structure by beginning with any record in a file.Relational structures. A relational structure is made up of many tables. The data are stored in the form of “relations” in these tables. This is a relatively new database structuring approach thats expected to be widely implemented in the future.

24、Physical Structures. People visualize or structure data in logical ways for their own purposes. Thus, records R1 and R2 may always be logically linked and processed in sequence in one particular application. However, in a computer system its quite possible that these records that are logically conti

25、guous in one application are not physically stored together. Rather, the physical structure of the records in media and hardware may depend not only on the I/O and storage devices and storage techniques used, but also on the different logical relationships that users may assign to the data found in

26、R1 and R2. For example, R1 and R2 may be records of credit customers who have shipments send to the same block in the same city every 2 weeks. From the shipping department managers perspective, then, R1 and R2 are sequential entries on a geographically organized shipping report. But in the A/R appli

27、cation, the customers represented by R1 and R2 may be identified, and their accounts may be processed, according to their account numbers which are widely separated. In short, then, the physical location of the stored records in many computer-based information systems is invisible to users. Database

28、 Management Features of MySQL MySQL includes many features that make the database easier to manage. Weve divided the discussion in this section into three categories: MySQL Enterprise Manager, add-on packs, backup and recovery.1. MySQL Enterprise ManagerAs part of Database Server, MySQL provides the

29、 MySQL Enterprise Manager (EM), a database management tool framework with a graphical interface used to manage database users, instances, and features (such as replication) that can provide additional information about the MySQL environment.Prior to the MySQL8i database, the EM software had to be in

30、stalled on Windows 95/98 or NT-based systems and each repository could be accessed by only a single database manager at a time. Now you can use EM from a browser or load it onto Windows 95/98/2000 or NT-based systems. Multiple database administrators can access the EM repository at the same time. In

31、 the EM repository for MySQL9i, the super administrator can define services that should be displayed on other administrators consoles, and management regions can be set up.2. Add-on packsSeveral optional add-on packs are available for MySQL, as described in the following sections. In addition to the

32、se database-management packs, management packs are available for MySQL Applications and for SAP R/3.(1) standard Management Pack The Standard Management Pack for MySQL provides tools for the management of small MySQL databases (e.g., MySQL Server/Standard Edition). Features include support for perfo

33、rmance monitoring of database contention, I/O, load, memory use and instance, session analysis, index tuning, and change investigation and tracking.(2) Diagnostics Pack You can use the Diagnostic Pack to monitor, diagnose, and maintain the health of Enterprise Edition databases, operating systems, a

34、nd applications. With both historical and real-time analysis, it can automatically avoid problems before they occur. The pack also provides capacity planning features that help you plan and track future system-resource requirements. (3) Tuning PackWith the Tuning Pack, you can optimise system perfor

35、mance by identifying and tuning Enterprise Edition databases and application bottlenecks such as inefficient SQL, poor data design, and the improper use of system resources. The pack can proactively discover tuning opportunities and automatically generate the analysis and required changes to tune th

36、e systems. (4) Change Management PackThe Change Management Pack helps eliminate errors and avoid loss of data when upgrading Enterprise Edition databases to support new applications. It can analysis impact and complex dependencies associated with application changes and automatically perform databas

37、e upgrades. Users can use the easy-to-use wizards that teach the systematic steps necessary to upgrade.(5) AvailabilityMySQL Enterprise Manager can be used for managing MySQL Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition. To Enterprise Edition, additional functionality is provided by separate Diagnostics,

38、Tuning, and Change Management Packs.3. Backup and RecoveryAs every database administrator knows, backing up a database is a rather mundane but necessary task. An improper backup makes recovery difficult, if not impossible. Unfortunately, people often realize the extreme importance of this everyday t

39、ask only when it is too late usually after losing business-critical data due to a failure of a related system.The following sections describe some products and techniques for performing database backup operations.(1) Recovery ManagerTypical backups include complete database backups (the most common

40、type), database backups, control file backups. Previously, MySQLs Enterprise Backup Utility (EBU) provided a similar solution on some platforms. However, RMAN, with its Recovery Catalog stored in an MySQL database, provides a much more complete solution. RMAN can automatically locate, back up, resto

41、re, and recover databases, control files, and archived redo logs. RMAN for MySQL9i can restart backups and restores and implement recovery window policies when backups expire. The MySQL Enterprise Manager Backup Manager provides a GUI-based interface to RMAN.(2) Incremental backup and recoveryRMAN c

42、an perform incremental backups of Enterprise Edition databases. Incremental backups back up only the blocks modified since the last backup of a datafile, tablespace, or database; thus, theyre smaller and faster than complete backups. RMAN can also perform point-in-time recovery, which allows the rec

43、overy of data until just prior to a undesirable event.(3) Legato Storage ManagerVarious media-management software vendors support RMAN. MySQL bundles Legato Storage Manager with MySQL to provide media-management services, including the tracking of tape volumes, for up to four devices. RMAN interface

44、s automatically with the media-management software to request the mounting of tapes as needed for backup and recovery operations.(4) AvailabilityWhile basic recovery facilities are available for both MySQL Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition, incremental backups have typically been limited to En

45、terprise Edition.Choosing between MySQL and SQL ServerI have to decide between using the MySQL database and its development system, Microsoft SQL Server with Visual Studio. This choice will guide our future Web projects. What are the strong points of each of these combinations and what are the negat

46、ives?Lori: Making your decision will depend on what you already have. For instance, if you want to implement a Web-based database application and you are a Windows-only shop, SQL Server and the Visual Studio package would be fine. But the MySQL solution would be better with mixed platforms.There are

47、 other things to consider, such as what extras you get and what skills are required. WebDB is a content management and development tool that can be used by content creators, database administrators, and developers without any programming experience. WebDB is a browser-based tool that helps ease cont

48、ent creation and provides monitoring and maintenance tools. This is a good solution for organizations already using MySQL. MySQL also scales better than SQL Server, but you will need to have a competent MySQL administrator on hand.The SQL Sever/Visual Studio approach is more difficult to use and req

49、uires an experienced object-oriented programmer or some extensive training. However, you do get a fistful of development tools with Visual Studio: Visual Basic, Visual C+, and Visual InterDev for only $1,619. Plus, you will have to add the cost of the SQL Server, which will run you $1,999 for 10 clients or $3,999 for 25 clients-a less expensive solution than MySQLs.MySQL also has a package solution that starts at $6,767, depending on the platform selected.
