Buy
The purpose of this book is to provide a practical approach for IT professionals to acquire the necessary knowledge and expertise in data modeling to function effectively. It begins with an overview of basic data modeling concepts, introduces the methods and techniques, provides a comprehensive case study to present the details of the data model components, covers the implementation of the data model with emphasis on quality components, and concludes with a presentation of a realistic approach to data modeling. It clearly describes how a generic data model is created to represent truly the enterprise information requirements.

Data Modeling Fundamentals is a comprehensive guide to the foundation and principles behind data modeling and its essential role in successful database design. The only book specifically addressing the essentials of data modeling for IT professionals, it includes:

  • An overview of data modeling concepts, techniques, and symbols
  • Anatomy of a comprehensive data model describing the various components

  • Extensive details of entities, attributes, identifiers, and relationships

  • Transition from data modeling to database design and implementation, datanormalization, and modeling for decision-support systems

  • Quality data modeling and agile data modeling in practice

  • Trends in data modeling methodologies and techniques

Chapter summaries with review questions and exercises at the conclusion of each chapter help readers gauge their understanding of the material presented.
