Abstract
A good database is the bedrock on which you can create a good application. To create a sound database, you need to learn conceptual modeling skills. Database modeling and design are areas in which not all database administrators (DBAs) are uniformly proficient. Other than dealing with tables and the queries that are based on them, many DBAs don’t have a detailed understanding of areas such as normalization, functional dependency, and entity-relationship modeling.
