Program Plan Intro

Normalization:

The process used to minimize data redundancy and dependency in a relational database is known as normalization. The database table is divided into two or more tables and defines the relationship between those tables.

Second normal form (2NF):

  • The value of all non-primary key attributes should be dependent on the primary key attribute.
    • If any attribute is depending on the partial primary key then it should determine the other attributes for an instance of the entity.
  • The partial dependencies should be removed from the data model.

Third normal form (3NF):

  • The value of any non-primary key attributes will not depend on any other non-primary key attributes.
    • If any non-primary key attributes depend on any other non-primary key attribute then it should be moved or deleted.
    • It is termed as transitive dependency.

Partial dependency:

A partial dependency exists at that time of an attributes depends only a part of primary key. This dependency is related with 1st normal form.

Transitive dependency:

A transitive dependency exists at that time of an attributes depends on another attribute which is not part of primary key.

Functional dependency:

An association between two attributes or two set of attributes in a same relational database table, which is having some constraints is known as functional dependency.

  • In a table one attribute is functionally dependent on another attribute to take one value.
