Chapter Summary

This chapter introduced the assignment details. You were guided on what to include in your submission and how to produce the required code and documentation. You saw how JDBC was not used, although the concepts were helpful. You learned how to write your own database without JDBC by writing and reading from files directly using the RandomAccessFile class. You learned how to create a client-server databases management system, including how to use sockets to connect the various pieces of the system. Finally, you reviewed the deliverables for a successful submission. A deliverables checklist is always a good way to ensure that you completed all the steps.
