    Notes on Information Systems and Data Modeling (IT 1090)

    1. Introduction to Information Systems:


     Information systems (IS) are composed of people, processes, data, and technology
    working together to support business operations and decision-making.
     Types of information systems include transaction processing systems (TPS),
    management information systems (MIS), decision support systems (DSS), and
    executive information systems (EIS).
    2. Components of Information Systems:
     People: Users who interact with the system, including employees, customers, and
    stakeholders.
     Processes: Business processes and workflows that govern how information is
    captured, processed, and distributed within the organization.
     Data: Raw facts and figures that are collected, stored, and processed by the system.
     Technology: Hardware, software, networks, and infrastructure used to facilitate the
    functioning of the information system.
    3. Data Modeling:
     Data modeling is the process of creating a conceptual representation of data objects,
    relationships, and constraints to support business requirements.
     Entity-Relationship (ER) Model: Graphical representation used to describe entities,
    attributes, and relationships in a database.
     Attributes: Properties or characteristics of entities.
     Relationships: Associations between entities, such as one-to-one, one-to-many, and
    many-to-many relationships.
     Normalization: Process of organizing data in a database to reduce redundancy and
    improve data integrity.
    4. Database Management Systems (DBMS):
     DBMS is software that allows users to create, manage, and manipulate databases. It
    provides mechanisms for storing, retrieving, and modifying data.
     Common types of DBMS include relational, NoSQL, and object-oriented databases.
    5. Relational Database Concepts:
     Tables: Data is organized into tables, where each row represents a record and each
    column represents an attribute.
     Primary Key: Unique identifier for each record in a table.
     Foreign Key: Attribute that establishes a relationship between two tables.
     SQL (Structured Query Language): Language used to interact with relational
    databases for tasks such as querying, updating, and managing data.
    6. Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence:
     Data warehousing involves the collection, storage, and management of large volumes
    of data from various sources to support decision-making and analysis.
     Business intelligence (BI) encompasses tools and techniques for analyzing, reporting,
    and visualizing data to extract insights and inform strategic decisions.
    7. Data Governance and Security:
     Data governance involves the establishment of policies, procedures, and controls to
    ensure the quality, integrity, and security of data assets.
     Security measures such as access controls, encryption, and data backup are essential
    for protecting sensitive information and preventing unauthorized access or breaches.
    8. Emerging Trends:
     Big Data: Management and analysis of large and complex datasets.
     Cloud Computing: Deployment of databases and applications on cloud platforms for
    scalability and flexibility.
     Data Science: Integration of statistical analysis, machine learning, and predictive
    modeling to extract insights from data.
    9. Conclusion:
     Information systems and data modeling are essential components of modern
    organizations, enabling efficient data management, decision-making, and strategic
    planning.
     Understanding these concepts is crucial for IT professionals involved in system
    development, database administration, and business analysis.
