Question :
Student Answer:
Instructor Explanation:
(TCO 1) Describe three-tier architecture. Explain the func
performed by each tier.
Three-tier architecture refers to the configuration involving
application server, and a data server. The client, which can
thought of as the end-user application, sends requests to a
responses from the application server. The application serv
be thought of as the middle-man or mediator, receives resp
and sends responses to the client and also sends data requ
receives data back from the data server. The data server, w
thought of as a somewhat more passive storage facility, rec
requests from and sends data back to the application serve
components should ideally work together to create a seaml
the end user.
A computing architecture consists of the following:
1. Client computers capture user input, send requests for info
present the results of the request.
2. Application servers enable business logic.

2. Question :
Student Answer:
(TCO 2) Explain business logic and describe how it relates to
a relational database.
Business logic refers to the set of rules and guidelines that
govern a company's policies and procedures. For example,
business logic would dictate under what circumstances a
company would not accept a customer order, what processes
should be followed to fill customer orders, and those types of
things. A relational database can be an integral part of a
company's business logic system, because it keeps information
very organized and helps the company see clearly how various
components relate to one another. For example, a company
can keep its lists of customers, products, and orders in a
relational database, and this makes it very easy to not only
enter new order information but also keep track of inventory
levels, sales figures, and similar things in order to better follow
its ideal business logic.
Instructor
Explanation:
The set of rules that govern an organization's processes is
known as business logic. For example, an organization might
require that an employee identification number be assigned to
every employee before a payroll check could be issued.
Without this number, the relational database would reject the
transaction.

3. Question :
Student Answer:
(TCO 4) From first normal form, second normal form, or third
normal form, select one of these forms and explain (1) how
that normal form is often violated by inexperienced database
designers and (2) how to correct such a violation of that
normal form.
First normal form refers to a table where each field contains
only a single value. This can be violated by inexperienced
database designers by creating records where one or more
fields contain multiple values. For example, a table containing
information about customer personal information may contain
a field for their phone number. If the same customer has more
than one phone number and both are entered, this would
create a violation of the first normal form. This type of
violation can be corrected by removing the field in question
from the table and creating a new table with a different
primary key where all values can be included in separate
records. In our example, we would create a second table with
the phone number as the primary key so that we could enter
multiple numbers for the same customer. An alternate solution
in this case might be to create multiple fields in the original
table to allow for such situations, such as one field for a home
phone number and a separate field for a cell phone number.
Instructor
Explanation:
Student answers will vary. However, a good student answer might
be similar to the following sample answer.
The student might describe that the first normal form is violated
when an OrderTable has repeating columns such as Product 1,
Product 2, Product 3, and so forth. To fix this problem, students
should indicate a new Products table could be created and joined
to a junction/association table in a many-to-many relationship
between OrderTable and ProductTable.

4. Question :
Student Answer:
(TCO 4) Explain 1NF, 2NF, and 3NF as related to database
design.
1NF stands for first normal form, which refers to a table in
which all fields contain only single values. For example, a field
cannot contain two different phone numbers, addresses, etc.
2NF stands for second normal form, which refers to a table in
which every non-key field is determined by the entire primary
key, not just part of it. Problems with this form can occur
when more than one field is used as a primary key but the
parts of the primary key determine different fields in the table.
3NF stands for third normal form, which refers to a table in
which no non-key field determines another non-key field. If
this were not the case, then the determining field should
probably be the key field in a separate table. Taken together,
these three normal forms represent standards that should be
adhered to for good database design. They help maintain data
integrity and prevent issues that would cause confusion or
other potential problems.
Instructor
Explanation:
1NF: The entity contains single values only and each record
can be identified by a primary key.
2NF: Foreign keys are used to build relationships that remove
repeating subsets of data.
3NF: All attributes that are not dependent upon the primary key
are removed.
