Database Systems, 8th Edition

This document discusses the systems development life cycle (SDLC) and database life cycle (DBLC) frameworks for developing successful databases and information systems. It explains that the SDLC includes 5 phases - planning, analysis, design, implementation, and maintenance. Within each phase, various activities are carried out, such as assessing requirements, evaluating solutions, designing system processes, coding and testing, and ongoing maintenance activities. The goal is to transform data into useful information and ensure the database and system evolve with the business environment over time.
