Entity-Relationship Diagrams (ERDs)
- ER Diagrams are visual representations of data and relationships within a database.
- They depict entities, attributes, and relationships between entities.
- The purpose of an ER Diagram is to design database structures and model data effectively.
- Cardinality and modality are key concepts used in ER Diagrams to define relationships.
- Keys are crucial for data integrity and ensuring accurate data retrieval.
- A primary key uniquely identifies each entity within a table.
- Foreign keys establish relationships between tables, linking entities based on shared data.
- Superkeys are a combination of attributes that uniquely identify an entity, possibly including more attributes than a primary key.
- Candidate keys are potential primary keys, with the ability to uniquely identify an entity.
- Composite keys are primary keys consisting of multiple attributes working together to uniquely identify an entity.
- A foreign key constraint ensures data consistency by linking foreign keys to primary keys in related tables.
