The first and only database primer for today's global economy
Today's businesses depend on their databases to provide information essential for their day-to-day operations and to help them take advantage of today's rapidly growing and maturing electronic commerce opportunities. The primary responsibility for the design and maintenance of these databases rests with a company's information technology department.

- What is the purpose of a database system?
- What are the components of a database system?
- What type of data does your company need to capture?
- How do you design a database for a particular goal?
