Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD) was a solution to the problem of not having a standard way to model databases or neither to business processes. Thus, it is a type of flowchart that helps us understand how different entities, objects, or concepts are related to each other within a system. ...
What function does an attribute of an entity perform in a DBMS? What is a database object? What is a database? Give an example of a composite entity. What does an attribute do? What is DBMS? What is a relational database? What is the difference between an associative entity and a tr...
Strong Entity Type:Strong entity are those entity types which has a key attribute. The primary key helps in identifying each entity uniquely. It is represented by a rectangle. In the above example, Roll_no identifies each element of the table uniquely and hence, we can say that STUDENT is ...
The ER diagram example below shows an entity with some attributes in it. Primary Key Also known as PK, a primary key is a special kind of entity attribute thatuniquely defines a record in a database table. In other words, there must not be two (or more) records that share the same ...
Each row contains a set of information and is termed as a tuple. Every column in a table holds the smallest piece of data about an entity. It is known as a field. The field holds data that should be atomic and belongs to a particular data type like character, number, date, e...
Middleware is an essential component of modern-day distributed computing, where applications and systems are distributed across different networks, platforms, and devices.

The basic principle of zero trust is that no entity on a network should be trusted, regardless of whether it is outside or inside the network perimeter. Zero trust has a special focus on data security, because data is the primary asset attackers are interested in. A zero trust architecture...
A node represents an entity or discrete object in your graph data model. Nodes can be connected by relationships, hold data in properties, and are classified by labels. nodes A node represents an entity or discrete object in your graph data model. Nodes can be connected by relationships, hold...
In this model, an entity is anything that exists independently, whereas an association is something that only exists in relation to something else. The associative model structures the data into two sets: A set of items, each with a unique identifier, a name, and a type A set of links, ...
