CLIENT SERVER MODEL - DBMS

-

 The Client-Server model is a distributed architecture system that divides the task between the servers and clients. Here, when the client sends a request to the server through the internet, the server accepts the requested process and delivers the requested data packets back to the client. 


The browser interacts with server as:
  • User enters the URL(Uniform Resource Locator) of the website. The browser then requests the DNS (Domain Name System) server.
  • DNS Server looks up for the address of the WEB Server.
  • DNS Server responds with the IP Address of the WEB Server.
  • Browser sends over an HTTP/HTTPS request to the WEB Server's IP
  • Server sends over the necessary files of the websites.
  • Browsers then renders the files and website is displayed.


Advantages:
  • Centralized System
  • Cost Efficient
  • Data recovery
  • Capacity of client and servers can be changed
Disadvantages:
  • Clients are prone to virus if present in server or uploaded into the server
  • Servers are prone to Denial of Service (DOS) attacks
  • Data packets may be spoofed or removed during transmission
  • Phishing or capturing login credentials or other useful information of the user are common and MITM(Man in the Middle) attacks are common.

THREE LEVELS OF DATA INDEPENDENCE

Image
THREE LEVELS OF DATA INDEPENDENCE It divides the entire system into three inter-related but independent modules: Physical Level: Here, information about the location of database objects in the data store is kept. Various DBMS users are unaware of the locations of these objects. The Physical level of database describes how the data is stored in secondary storage devices such as disks and tapes. Conceptual Level: Here, data is represented in the form of various tables. For Example, STUDENT database may contain NAME and COURSE tables, but the users are unaware of their storage. It refers to what kind of data to be stored in a database. External Level: Here, it specifies the view of data in terms of conceptual level tables. It can generate different views of the database for different users. It focuses main on data abstraction.  Data Independence: It means change of data at one level must not affect the another level. Physical Data Independence: Any change in the physical location of the t

Python-HackerRank Problem List Comprehensions

Problem Print a list of all possible coordinates given by (i,j,k) on a 3D grid where the sum of i+j+k is not equal to  n. Here, 0<=i<=x;0<=j<=y;0<=k<=z. Please use list comprehensions rather than multiple loops, as a learning exercise.  Source Code   if  __name__ ==  '__main__' :     x =  int ( input ())     y =  int ( input ())     z =  int ( input ())     n =  int ( input ())      print   ([[ a , b , c ]   for  a  in   range ( 0 , x+1 )   for  b  in   range ( 0 , y+1 )   for  c  in   range ( 0 , z+1 )     if  a + b + c != n  ])

Given an array of integers, where all elements but one occur twice, find the unique element. Solution: n  =  int ( input ()) array  =  list ( map ( int ,   input () . rstrip () . split ())) for   element   in   array :      count  =  array . count ( element )      if   count  ==  1 :          print ( element )
