Study Notes

Logical Design Phase Purpose

  • To translate user requirements into a logical model, independent of specific technologies
  • Focuses on entities, attributes, and relationships, creating an abstract representation of data

Physical Design Phase Conversion

  • Logical model is translated into a physical model
  • Primary unique identifier from the logical model is converted to a physical model
  • Physical model considers specific database management system and hardware constraints

Physical Design Phase Considerations

  • Specific database management system
  • Hardware and software limitations
  • Storage structures and access methods

Distinguishing Entities

  • Primary Key: A unique identifier used to distinguish between instances of an entity
  • Ensures data integrity and efficient data access

Logical Design Phase Checks

  • Data dependencies
  • Data integrity
  • Data consistency
  • Data completeness
  • Data accuracy
  • Data security
  • Data recovery
  • Data performance
  • Data scalability
  • Data usability
  • Data maintainability
  • Data availability
  • Data reliability
