    Study Notes

    Data Modeling Perspectives

    • External perspective: a view of the data required to support business processes

    Conceptual Design Phase

    • Aim: to identify the overall structure of the data, without considering how it will be physically implemented

    Conceptual Schema

    • Provides: a high-level, abstract representation of the data, independent of hardware or software constraints

    Logical Model

    • Main purpose: to translate the conceptual schema into a logical structure, which can be used to implement the physical database

    Database Design Phases

    • Entity-Relationship (ER) diagram: used during the conceptual design phase
