TRADITIONAL ADMINISTRATION DEFINITIONS
Data Administration: A high-level function that is responsible for the overall management of data resources in an organization, including maintaining corporate-wide definitions and standards Database Administration: A technical function that is responsible for physical database design and for dealing with technical issues such as security enforcement, database performance, and backup and recovery

TRADITIONAL DATA ADMINISTRATION FUNCTIONS
Data policies, procedures, standards
Data Policies: statements that make explicit the goals of DA Data procedure: written outlines of actions to be taken to perform certain activity Data Standard: explicit conventions and behaviors that are to be followed and that can be used to help evaluate dbase quality
Planning Data conflict (ownership) resolution Managing the information repository Internal marketing of DA concepts

EVOLVING APPROACHES TO DATA ADMINISTRATION
Blend data and database administration into one role Fast-track developmentmonitoring development process:
Database planning: improve selection of technology Database analysis: work on physical design in parallel with development of the logical & physical models Database design: prioritize application by volume, importance & complexity Database implementation Database maintenance

EVOLVING APPROACHES TO DATA ADMINISTRATION
New DBA Roles
Procedural DBAsmanaging quality of triggers and stored procedures eDBAmanaging Internet-enabled database applications PDA DBAdata synchronization and personal database management Data warehouse administration

DATA WAREHOUSE ADMINISTRATION
New role, coming with the growth in data warehouses Similar to DA/DBA roles Emphasis on integration and coordination of metadata/data across many data sources Specific roles:
Support DSS applications Manage data warehouse growth Establish service level agreements regarding data warehouses and data marts

OPEN SOURCE DBMSS
DEFINITION:
Free DBMS source code software that provides the core functionality of an SQL-compliant DBMS
An alternative to proprietary packages such as Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, or Microsoft Access
mySQL is an example of an open-source DBMS
Advantages:
Less expensive than proprietary packages Source code available, for modification Have different version (simple to complex, free to some cost(additional features) No additional cost for copies or licensing

OPEN SOURCE DBMSS
Disadvantages:
Absence
of complete documentation Ambiguous licensing concerns Not as feature-rich as proprietary DBMSs Vendors may not have certification programs
