Description
Database systems and database design technology have undergone significant evolution in recent years. The relational data model and relational
database systems dominate business applications; in turn, they are extended by other technologies like data warehousing, OLAP, and data
mining. How do you model and design your database application in consideration of new technology or new business needs?
In the extensively
revised fourth edition, you’ll get clear explanations, lots of terrific examples and an illustrative case, and the really practical advice
you have come to count on--
with design rules that are applicable to any SQL-based system. But you’ll also get plenty to help
you grow from a new database designer to an experienced designer developing industrial-sized systems.
Audience:
Professional data modelers and database design professionals, including database application designers, database admininstrators (DBAs),
and new/novice data management professionals, including those working on object oriented database design; students in second courses
in database focusing on design.
