Client manages main business and data processing logic and user interface
-
Server manages and controls access to database
-
Third Party manage server
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
What are true about Three-Tier Architecture?
Respuesta
-
Business logic and data processing layer, middle tier runs on a server (application server)
-
User interface layer runs on client
-
Makes use of the Cloud
-
DBMS stores data required by the middle tier. This tier may be on a separate server (database server)
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
What are the advantages of the Three-Tier Architecture?
Respuesta
-
Application maintenance centralized
-
‘Thin’ client, requiring less expensive hardware
-
Easier to modify or replace one tier without affecting others
-
Backups are always and only run off site for redundancy
-
Maps quite naturally to Web environment
-
Separating business logic from database functions makes it easier to implement load balancing

Primary Key: Candidate key selected to identify records uniquely within table
-
Alternate Keys: Candidate keys that are not selected to be primary key
-
Master Key: Candidate keys that are equivalent to the Primary Key
-
Foreign Key: Column, or set of columns, within one table that matches candidate key of some (possibly same) table
Pregunta 20
Pregunta
Select ALL that are True regarding Relational Integrity
Respuesta
-
Entity Integrity: In a base table, no column of a primary key can be null
-
Referential Integrity: If FK exists in a table, either FK value must match a candidate key value of some record in its home table or FK value must be wholly null
-
Relational Integrity: If FK exists in a table, either FK value must match a candidate key value of some record in its home table or FK value must be wholly null
