When CCCL Inc was a small company, keeping records and customer data by the use of spreadsheets, access databases, and manual records were realistic practices, but as the company has grown, it has outgrown such practices. Management at GRW is now searching for a centralized database solution that will allow multi-department database collaboration as well as the ability to mine data as needed, companywide. The proposed solution to the needs of the company is the installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2012. The following report addresses the type of SQL Server to implement, security for the new database, high availability, plans for backup & recovery, integration services, and other related details to ensure a smooth transition into the company’s new database.
SQL Edition Selection and Installation
SQL Server 2012 is available in three major editions which include Standard, Business Intelligence (BI), and Enterprise. Each consecutive edition includes all the features of its predecessor, yet with additional features. The Standard Edition of SQL Server 2012 is the base edition which includes features such as programmability, manageability, basic high availability, basic corporate BI, and basic data integration. The BI edition adds the features of self-service business intelligence, advance corporate business intelligence, and enterprise data management. SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition further adds advanced data integration, advanced security, data warehousing, and advanced high availability (Microsoft, n.d.). In addition to the three major editions of SQL Server 2012, are more highly specialized editions, which are designed with specific needs in mind, such as the Developer, Web, and Express editions.

In 1994, Jim Donehey was brought in to update Capital One’s IT system. His solution was to replace their aging mainframe computers with an object-based system, but this technology had never been used on such a large scale. In contrast, two-thirds of Capital One’s competitors outsourced their IT functions. Within 5 years the company had the world’s largest Oracle database with 23 terabytes of data – winning them the Gartner Group’s Excellence in Technology Award.

In 1977, Larry Ellison, Bob Miner, and Ed Oates founded System Development Laboratories. After being inspired by a research paper written in 1970 by an IBM researcher titled “A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks” they decided to build a new type of database called a relational database system. The original project on the relational database system was for the government (Central Intelligence Agency) and was dubbed ‘Oracle.’ They thought this would be appropriate because the meaning of Oracle is source of wisdom.
To build this new CRM system, they had to merge 20 different databases into one multiterabyte repository with 50 million unique customer records, and used enterprise application integration tools, messaging middleware, rules engines and Java application server technology to integrate applications and transport data between various applications and the database
System performance is one of the most critical issues faced by companies dealing with vast amounts of data. Companies use database systems and their applications to store, retrieve and handle this data.
DBA deals with all of this by finding user needs, set the database, and test the system. DBA should enable editing any system he or she created. At the same time DBA should ensure the security of the data and guarantee data integrity and backup. Moreover, DBAs should know the database management systems (DBMS) that include the knowledge of Oracle, IBM DB2, and Microsoft SQL server (“Database Administrator,” 2010). Oracle is one of the most important platforms that DBA must know and have experience with. According to Kanaracus “The database experience we look for most of the time is Oracle”, says Tom Hart, executive vice president of the operations and technology group at Veritude. “SQL Server is more of a nice-to-have"

...M and the US National Security Agency. It was previously the most dominant type of encryption, but it is now being taken over by AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). Since data encryption standard, only took on a 56-bit symmetric key encryption, AES uses three key sizes, 128, 192, and 256 bits. When personal computer users want to encrypt email or other documents, they go to Phillip Zimmerman?s "Pretty Good Privacy" software. This software allows you to digitally sign a message, which verifies to the recipient that you are the sender and that no interfering is involved.
Some faculties and departments are already using Oracle applications in their day-to-day operations. As time goes by, more and more information users will be working with an application based on Oracle database technology. If you get the opportunity to be a member of an application development team, you will become familiar with the workings of Oracle and relational databases. Other users may have to learn about this popular database management system through their own experience. This article is for our readers who, as of yet, have no access to Oracle databases but have a yearning for learning what they're all about.

In our world, people rely heavily on the power of technology every day. Kids are learning how to operate an iPad before they can even say their first word. School assignments have become virtual, making it possible to do anywhere in the world. We can receive information from across the world in less than a second with the touch of a button. Technology is a big part of our lives, and without it life just becomes a lot harder. Just like our phones have such an importance to us in our daily lives, database management systems are the same for businesses. Without this important software, it would be almost impossible for companies to complete simple daily tasks with such ease.
