Heterogeneous Database
Definition
“A Heterogeneous Database System is an automated (or semi-automated) system for the integration of heterogeneous, disparate database DBMS to present a user with a single, unified query interface. Heterogeneous database systems (HDBS) are computational models and software implementations that provide heterogeneous database integration”
Introduction and Discription
There are two main types of DDBS one is Homogeneous Database System and other one is Heterogeneous Database System. Our report focus is on Heterogeneous Database System. HDBS comprises a software layer (integration layer)and multiple DBSs and/or file Systems to be integrated. Users can transparently access the integrated DBSs and/or file systems via the interface provided by the integration layer. Defines a global data model Supports a Data Definition Language (DDL)Supports a Data Manipulation Language (DML)Distributed Transaction Management Transparent integration of the underlying, disparate DBS. The integrated, local DBSs are autonomous and can also be used as stand-alone systems. Local applications are unchanged and unknown to the HDBS.
The transformation of existing local databases to meet diverse application needs at the global level is performed through a four-layered procedure that stresses total schema integration and virtual integration of local databases. The proposed methodology covers both schema integration and database integration, and uses a four-layered schema architecture (local schemata, local object schemata, global schema, and global view schemata) with each layer presenting an integrated view of the concepts that characterize the layer below. Mechanisms for accomplishing this objective are presented in theoretical terms, along with a running example. Object equivalence classes, property equivalence classes, and other related concepts are discussed in the context of logical integration of heterogeneous schemata, while object instance equivalence classes and property instance equivalence classes, and other related concepts are discussed for data integration purposes. The proposed methodology resolves naming conflicts, scaling conflicts, type conflicts, and level of abstraction, and other types of conflicts during schema integration, and data inconsistencies during data integration
In a heterogeneous distributed database system, at least one of the databases is a non-Oracle system. To the application, the heterogeneous distributed database system appears as a single, local, Oracle database. The local Oracle database server hides the distribution and heterogeneity of the data.
The Oracle database server accesses the non-Oracle system using Oracle Heterogeneous Services in conjunction with an agent. If you access the non-Oracle
2Database System 271

data store using an Oracle Transparent Gateway, then the agent is a system-specific application. For example, if you include a Sybase database in an Oracle distributed system, then you need to obtain a Sybase-specific transparent gateway so that the Oracle databases in the system can communicate with it.Alternatively, you can use generic connectivity to access non-Oracle data stores so long as the non-Oracle system supports the ODBC or OLE DB protocols.
Sites may run different DBMS products, with possibly different underlying data models.
Occurs when sites have implemented their own databases and integration is considered later.
Translations required to allow for:
Different hardware. Different DBMS products. Different hardware and different DBMS products.
Typical solution is to use gateways
.Database Integration
• Goal: providing a uniform access to multiple heterogeneous information sources
• More than data exchange (e.g., ASCII, EDI, XML)
• Old problem, difficult, well-known (partial)Solutions

Data Integration
• We did not directly work on it in the project; however, used different service
interfaces which requires data interchange
• Typically requires (some) manual Interaction

5Database System 271
Heterogeneous Database System Presentation Report
• Manually merge multiple databases into a new global database
• Time consuming and error prone
• Local autonomy lost
• Static solution
• Does not scale with number of databases
Old-School Approach Multidatabase Language Approach
• No attempt at integrating schemas
• Language (e.g., SQL) used to integrate information sources at run-time
• Not transparent (you need to know all data bases!)
• Heavy burden on (expert) users
• Global queries subject to local changes

Current work on the Heterogeneous database
In a heterogeneous distributed database, different sites may use different schema and software. Difference in schema is a major problem for query processing and transaction processing. Sites may not be aware of each other and may provide only limited facilities for cooperation in
11Database System 271
Heterogeneous Database System Presentation Report
transaction processing. In heterogeneous systems, different nodes may have different hardware & software and data structures at various nodes or locations are also incompatible. Different computers and operating systems, database applications or data models may be used at each of the locations. For example, one location may have the latest relational database management technology, while another location may store data using conventional files or old version of database management system. Similarly, one location may have the Windows NT operating system, while another may have UNIX. Heterogeneous systems are usually used when individual sites use their own hardware and software. On heterogeneous system, translations are required to allow communication between different sites (or DBMS). In this system, the users must be able to make requests in a database language at their local sites. Usually the SQL database language is used for this purpose. If the hardware is different, then the translation is straightforward, in which computer codes and word-length is changed. The heterogeneous system is often not technically or economically feasible. In this system, a user at one location may be able to read but not update the data at another location.
Future work
The heterogeneous future work is on following things
Linux operating system
Unix operating system
It also playing an important role in improving relational database system
It also modifies the performance of DBMS

discussed the tools and technologies for developing and maintaining the web based DDBS and their modification and integration according to the need of time.
Lesson learnt
Gain knowledge about heterogeneous database system We came to know the tools and technologies of heterogeneous database system Learnet about distributed database system We came to know that how much heterogenous database system is globally important.
My experience
Before this research we didn’t knew that how is data distributed in segments over the network and how it can be access or we can say how we retrieve data by querying over the internet. We were also don’t know that how is data managed by using different tools and their modifications with time. The advantages and disadvantages were also unknown for us.Throughout our research we came to know that what are Heterogeneous database And heterogeneous database system is. Before this we were not aware of such wonderful information about database management over the web servers. Through the research now we are able to tell what are DDBS and their types which includes Heterogeneous Data Base Systems and Hmogeneous database system.

Review Topic: Heterogeneous Databases
By going through the report created by Hanzala Akram and Haq Nawaz on the topic heterogeneous databases I observed that report is made according to the given contents of sir as sir Tehseen guided us.The data is presented relatively according to the contents and similarity is shown in the data about the contents of report.The things which we observed that are lacking in the report are below other wise report is created accordingly to the given context.
The data about contents except introduction I feel is less detailed which is required.
13Database System 271
Heterogeneous Database System Presentation Report
The data is not more related to the industrial base I feel some details may the report is lacking.
I think data relted to contents should be more detailed that can elaborate the complete meanings of infromation required for the reports contents.
The advantages and disadvantages are given in tabular form in keypoints but not detailed one.
In the section tootls and technologies just the tools names are given but complete detail is not provided.
In the section future work there too just some tools are mentioned complete detail also missing .
