"A meticulous and logical examination of territories where computer geeks live and territories where corporate planners live. A key strength of the work lies in the way it covers practicalities and perspectives in each area.”
- Dr. Stephen Sobol, University of Leeds
Databases are about information sharing. They allow many people to access data at the same time, and also to mine that data for useful information. In the past, however, many database applications were limited to one organization, and usually to a single physical location. Only the biggest companies had the necessary networking resources to allow their people to access information from multiple locations. The evolution of the world wide web, and the information sharing ethos it promotes, has smashed these boundaries. Now, any organization can use the Web to allow its people to access data from home, or to share its data with clients. Through its coverage of the web and database technologies, and by demonstrating the latest design techniques, this book will give you everything you need to start designing and building your own effective databases.
An Introduction to Databases with Web Applications takes a unique approach in that it gives equal weight to the key concepts of both database development and web technology and presents them in a single, introductory textbook. By setting database development in the context of the web the author overcomes the problem of learning each aspect in isolation and then trying to ‘bolt on’ one to the other. Instead, he gives you a genuine understanding and solid grounding in this important field.
This book will be invaluable to undergraduate students studying databases as part of: a business computing and information systems programme; a computer science degree; and those on wider business courses as they will all encounter databases throughout their professional careers.
