Assignment: Problem Set-Week 5

Sanjib Kumar Shil

International American University

MIS 560: Database Management Systems

Professor Dr. Prasanth Kalakota


Problems 22-24 are based on following query:

22.Ans: I would consider creating an index on V_STATE and another on V_AREACODE. It is


widely used for filtering or joining, and an index on this column can improve query performance.
The previously mentioned question concerns the qualities in its restrictive models. Additionally,
equity correlations are used in the contingent standard.

23.Ans: The following orders are intended to produce the files I proposed in issue 22:
CREATE INDEX VEND_NDX1 ON VENDOR(V_STATE);
CREATE INDEX VEND_NDX2 ON VENDOR(V_AREACODE);

24.Ans: The following orders were utilized to generate insights for the Item and Merchant tables:

ANALYZE TABLE PRODUCT COMPUTE STATISTICS;


ANALYZE TABLE VENDOR COMPUTER STATISTICS;

Answer to the Question no. 2

A backup of data is a copy of it. This copy may include the control file, data files, and other
important database components. A backup safeguards against unplanned data loss and application
failures. If you lose the original data, you can restore it using a backup. To restore from a physical
backup, a data file or control file must be rebuilt and made available to the Oracle database server.
Redo logs, or records of database changes made after the backup was taken, must be applied to
both online and archived redo logs in order to update a recovered data file and permit recovery.
Data files from incremental backups, which are copies of a data file that only contain the modified
blocks since the last incremental backup, can also be recovered using RMAN.
Businesses devote a great amount of time and effort to developing their own data and
information. This type of knowledge is frequently the key to establishing a competitive advantage
in the marketplace. Data loss caused by threats or disasters can lead to dissatisfied consumers, lost
sales, and even insolvency. For example, more than 90% of businesses that experience a major
crisis without a disaster recovery strategy collapse within a year. Backup software provides a
variety of advantages that might help you save time and remain competitive in the event of a data
loss or other issue when backing up your data. The backup's purpose is to create a copy of the data
that can be retrieved if the primary data is lost. Primary data failures can be caused by hardware,
software, data corruption, human error, hostile attack (virus or malware), incorrect data deletion,
or any other human-generated event. Backup copies of data can be used to restore data to a previous
point in time, allowing a company to recover from an unanticipated calamity. If the original data
is lost or damaged, it is critical to keep a copy of the data on a second medium. An external drive
or USB stick are examples of simple additional media, whereas a disk storage system, cloud
storage container, or tape drive are examples of more complex additional media. The alternative medium
could be further away or closer to the primary data. The possibility of weather-related
incidents may justify having multiple copies of the data in separate places.
Both large and tiny enterprises generate and manage massive volumes of electronic data or
information. Several of those facts are critical. The survival and continuation of the firm are
dependent on a specific amount of information. Data loss or corruption caused by a virus, hacking,
human error, or technological failure could have a substantial impact. A business continuity plan
(BCP) and an IT disaster recovery plan (IT DRP) should be prepared in tandem. Priorities for
information technology and recovery time goals should be set during the business impact research.
Technology recovery solutions should be designed in order to restore hardware, software, and data
in time to fulfill business recovery requirements. To preserve electronic data, data backup and
restore must be used.
In the event that one or more of the following system components are lost, recovery plans should
be developed:
a) Computer room environment: an air-conditioned, secure computer room with a backup
power source.
b) LANs, servers, laptops, desktops, wireless devices, and peripherals are examples of
hardware.
c) Connection to a service provider.
d) Office productivity software, company resource management software, electronic data
transfer software, and so on.
e) Data backup and recovery.
The value of data backups cannot be overstated. Long-term unavailability could lead to consumer
dissatisfaction, migration to other service providers, a drop in sales, and, in the worst-case
scenario,bankruptcy. The loss or theft of competitive data has the potential to eliminate a company's
competitive advantage.
