Book Preface

A tenth edition is a milestone that few textbooks achieve. We wrote the first edition of this book because we wanted to explain the complexity of database systems in a language that was easy for students to understand. Over the years, we have maintained this emphasis on reaching out to students to explain complex concepts in a practical, approachable manner. This book has been successful through nine editions because the authors, editors, and the publisher paid attention to the impact of technology and to adopter questions and suggestions. We believe that this tenth edition successfully reflects the same attention to such factors.

In many respects, rewriting a book is more difficult than writing it the first time. If the book is successful, as this one is, a major concern is that the updates, inserts, and deletions will adversely affect writing style and continuity of coverage. The combination of superb reviewers and editors, plus a wealth of feedback from adopters and students of the previous editions, helped make this new edition the best yet.

 CHANGES TO THE TENTH EDITION

In this tenth edition, we have added some new features and reorganized some coverage to provide a better flow of material. Aside from enhancing the already strong coverage of database design, we have made other improvements in the topical coverage. Here are a few of the highlights:

     •    Updated Business Vignettes showing the impact of database technologies in the real world

     •    Expanded coverage of cloud data services such as Platform as a Service, Software as a Service, and Infrastructure as a Service

     •    Added coverage of the emergence of Big Data and related NoSQL data models

     •    Enhanced and streamlined coverage of business intelligence and data analytics

     •    Streamlined coverage of SQL and PL/SQL

     •    Enhanced coverage of data models by shifting the focus from a historical perspective to emerging data technologies

     •    Expanded end-of-chapter review questions and problems

     •    Improved readability and overall visual appeal of the book

This tenth edition continues to provide a solid and practical foundation for the design, implementation, and management of database systems. This foundation is built on the notion that, while databases are very practical, their successful creation depends on understanding the important concepts that define them. It’s not easy to come up with the proper mix of theory and practice, but the previously mentioned feedback suggests that we largely succeeded in our quest to maintain the proper balance.
