ER Model
- The ER Model serves as a conceptual representation of the database, helping designers and developers to better understand the database requirements before implementing the actual database.
- The ER Model helps in understanding the overall structure of the database, including entities, relationships, and constraints.
Data Modeling
- The purpose of data modeling is to create a conceptual representation of the database, defining entities, attributes, and relationships, to better understand the data requirements and design an efficient database.
ER Model Depiction
- The ER Model depicts entities, attributes, and relationships between entities, providing a visual representation of the database structure and organization.
