  1. DATA MODELING AND DATABASE DESIGN Part 3

  2. Objectives • Translate Logical to Physical design • Steps for converting (mapping) Resolved ERD to set of Table Instance Charts • Table Instance Charts symbols. • Some mapping examples

  3. Database Design -from Logical to Physical • Map entities and attributes to tables and columns respectively. • Naming conventions should be consistent. • Consider primary, unique and foreign keys and check constraints as well • Additional requirements • Design the indexes • Establish view definitions • Plan the physical storage space

  4. Steps to convert your Resolved ERD to TIC set • Map ENTITIES to TABLES • Map ATTRIBUTES to COLUMNS • Map * to NOT NULL constraints • Map UIDs to PRIMARY KEY constraints • Map (#) Secondary UIDs to NOT NULL and UNIQUE Constraints • Map RELATIONSHIPS to FKs

  5. Table Instance Chart Symbols • PK - Primary Key • FK - Foreign Key • FK1, FK1 - Composite Foreign Keys • FK1, FK2 - Two foreign keys related to two separate tables • NN - Not Null • U - Unique • U1, U1 - Two columns unique in combination with each other • U1, U2 - Two unique (and indepenent) columns

  6. Creating a TIC: Example Create a Table Instance Chart (TIC) from the Logical Schema (Resolved ERD) EMPLOYEE_NEW_FORCE Table emp_no PK,FK EMPLOYEE emp_no NUM 7 Column name Key type Nulls/ Unique FK table FK column Datatype Max length Validate position NN CHAR 25 salary NN NUM 11,2 Comm NUM 4,2 Columns Keys Reference < 1 < 10000

  7. Steps for creating TIC1: Map Entities to Tables • Create a frame for each TIC • Table name • Column names • Key types • Not Null and Unique references • Foreign key information • Column datatype and maximum length • Sample data • Put the table name at the top of the chart.

  8. Step 2: Map the Attributes to Columns • Map each attribute from the entity to a column name in the table. • Mandatory columns get a NN constraint • Add sample data for each column (usually three rows) • Do not use SQL reserved words for column names.

  9. Step 3: Map the Unique Identifiers to Primary Keys • Map the UID of the entity as the primary key in the table. • Do NOT mark it as NN and U • If there is an alternate UID, label it as NN and U,but choose only one for a PK. • Add a FK column for each UID that is through a relationship (over UID bar)

  10. Step 4: Map Relationships to Foreign Keys • For One-to-Many relationships • Take the PK at the One end and create a column under same or different name in the other table at the Many end. • Mark it as a FK. • For mandatory relationships, be sure to label the NN reference.

  11. Step 4: Map Relationships to Foreign Keys --- continued • For One-to-One relationships, label the U reference. • If the relationship is optional in both directions, place the FK in the table at either end of the relationship. • If the relationship is mandatory, place the unique FK in the table at the mandatory end. • For mandatory relationships, be sure to label the NN reference.

  12. performed by EMPLOYEE_ ACTIVITY * per_diem_rate for MAPPING: Example requires performs EMPLOYEE_NEW_FORCE ACTIVITY # emp_no * position o job_description * salary o commission # activity_id * description o start_date o end_date * internal

  13. EMPLOYEE_NEW_FORCE ACTIVITY Entities to tables EMPLOYEE_ACTIVITY

  14. ACTIVITY Column Name id description start_date end_date internal Key Type Nulls/ Uniques FK Ref Table FK Column Datatype MAX Length Validation Attributes to Columns

  15. ACTIVITY Column Name id description start_date end_date internal Key Type Nulls/ Uniques FK Ref Table FK Column Datatype MAX Length Validation PK UID to PK and * to NOT NULL NN NN NN

  16. ACTIVITY Column Name id description start_date end_date internal Key Type Nulls/ Uniques FK Ref Table FK Column Datatype MAX Length Validation PK If Entity on Many side, then add FK Column NN NN NN We do NOT have here a FK Column !

  17. ACTIVITY Column Name id description start_date end_date internal Key Type Nulls/ Uniques FK Ref Table FK Column Datatype MAX Length Validation PK Validation (Check) on Columns with Limits NN NN NN {Y,N} >= sysdate

  18. for EMPLOYEE_ ACTIVITY for LINK - INTERSECTION ENTITIES

  19. EMPLOYEE_ACTIVITY Column Name emp_no activity_id per_diem_rate Key Type PK PK Nulls/ Uniques NN FK Ref Table FK ref Column Datatype MAX Length PK and NN

  20. EMPLOYEE_ACTIVITY Column Name emp_no activity_id per_diem_rate Key Type PK, FK1 PK, FK2 Nulls/ Uniques NN FK Ref . EMPLOYEE_ ACTIVITY table NEW_FORCE FK ref Column emp_no activity_id Datatype Number Number Number MAX Length 6 6 7,2 Foreign Keys

  21. Foreign Key Mapping Rules • Map the Relationship to a foreign key. • One to One optional in both directions - take the PK from either table and make it a FK in the other table. • One to One mandatory in one direction, take the PK from the optional end and make it a FK in the entity at the mandatory end. • One to Many - Take the PK at the one end and make it a FK in the entity at the many end. • Do not forget to label mandatory relations with NN
