VIEW LEVEL

LOGICAL LEVEL

1. This is the highest level of abstraction.

2. Users does not need all kind of data, they
need to access a part of the database and
view level provides that.
PHYSICAL LEVEL
3. It simplifies interaction with the user and
provide multiple
views.
VIEW-1 VIEW-2 VIEW-3
1. This level describes
VIEW LEVEL what data are stored in
the database.
2. what relationship
amongst those data.
LOGICAL LEVEL 3. it also describes entire
database in terms of
small no of relatively
simple structures.
PHYSICAL LEVEL
 1.The lowest level of
VIEW-1 VIEW-2 VIEW-3
abstraction.
2. It describes how
VIEW LEVEL
the data are actually
stored.
3. it also describes
the complex low level
LOGICAL LEVEL
data structure in
detail.
