Content

  • Distinguishing logical database design from physical database design, using PowerDesigner to examine data models, entities, attributes, and relationships, derived and subtype entities, dependent entities, diagramming a conceptual model, converting the conceptual model to a logical model, converting many-to-many, n-ary, and recursive relationships, normalization and the relational data model, normal forms (first, second, third, Boyce-Codd, higher), when to de-normalize, and the next step – where the logical design goes from here.

Notes

  • Course lenght: 10 hours
  • Learn to apply consistent methodology in creating a logical database design that is based on the relational data model and confirms to formal standards of normalization.
  • Examine techniques for gathering and analyzing business rules, using entity-relationship diagrams to capture conceptual data designs, and modeling business processes with data flow diagrams.
  • Study the theoretical foundations of the relational data model and how to apply its principles to produce a fully normalized logical data model and design.
