Referential Integrity Is Important For Databases
November 17, 2005 Abstract: Referential integrity is a database constraint that ensures that references between data are indeed valid and intact. Referential integrity is a fundamental principle of database theory and arises from the notion that a database should not only store data, but should actively seek to ensure its quality. The notion of referential integrity also applies to OODBMSs. There are relationships between objects that cause them to depend on each other and maintenance of these dependencies should not be left to application code.
Referential Integrity ni muhimu kwa Databases: Referential Integrity ni database constraint ambayo inahakikisha kwamba marejeleo kati ya data ni kweli halali na intact. Integrity Referential ni kanuni ya msingi ya nadharia database na inatokana na wazo kwamba database lazima si tu kuhifadhi data, lakini lazima kikamilifu kutafuta kuhakikisha ubora wake. Wazo la uadilifu wa kumbukumbu pia inatumika kwa OODBMSs. Kuna mahusiano kati ya vitu ambayo kusababisha yao kutegemea kila mmoja na matengenezo ya utegemezi hizi haipaswi kuachwa kwa programu code.
