Database Modeling and Normalization
Entity Relationship Model (ERM) Diagram is a data model used to describe the database in an abstract method. The relational database stores data in table. The entity in the database could point to several entries. For example, employee is an entity in the relationship database, and a diagram used to create the entity in the database is called entity-relationship diagrams or ER diagrams. (Silberschatz, Korth, 2006).
Objective of this report is to develop an entity relationship diagram for a consulting firm that offers information technology and database services. The firm attempts to create a relationships database to optimize and offer streamline solution efficiently in order to satisfy the government's requirements. The firm will create an ERM database to optimized data repository that will allow the firm to perform human resources (HR) functions effectively, which include as policy enforcement, benefits management, hiring, promotions, and training.
The paper provides the steps to employ to develop an effective Entity Relationship Model (ERM) Diagram for the firm.
1.1: Steps to Develop of an effective (ERM) Diagram
Steps in the development of ERM diagram for the HR core functions and responsibilities of the clients are as follows:
Entities: Identification of entities that will be should be used to develop HR core functions and responsibilities of the client.
Relationships: The next step is to develop relationships among the entities. For example, there is a relationship between HR employee and training, benefit management, policy enforcement, promotion, and training because HR employees will offer these services to employee...
Relational Databases For each table, identify the primary key and the foreign key(s). If a table does not have a foreign key, write None in the space provided. PRIMARY KEY FOREIGN KEY Truck TRUCK_NUM BASE_CODE, TYPE_CODE Base BASE_CODE TYPE_CODE Do the tables exhibit entity integrity? Answer yes or no, and then explain your answer. ENTITY INTEGRITY EXPLANATION Truck All rows under the primary key TRUCK_NUM are uniquely identified and there are no null entries Base All rows under the primary key BASE_CODE are uniquely identified and
Relational Databases in e-Commerce Of the many uses of relational databases throughout enterprise software their use for supporting e-commerce initiatives and programs provides a foundation for assessing their performance at diverse data and taxonomy management, and scalability of transactions as well. The scalability, security and speed of relational databases when used for e-commerce tasks push them to the limits of performance and customization as well. An example of this is the
This is one of the greatest limitations of this technology. A second major disadvantage of RDBMS-based systems is their lack of support for image- and spatial-based databases that include Computer-Aided Design (CAD) drawings, 3D rendering and model-based data. Their table-based structure is inefficient in defining the attributes of these data types and lacks the necessary data tagging and data types to manage imaging and CAD-based design files and data
They in short link and map ideas that already exist, creating real time answers to questions as they are applied to new and archived knowledge or action plans. According to IDC reports, most data warehouses will be stored in a columnar fashion and not in rows, reporting and data collection problems will be solved with databases that have no formal schema at all, horizontal scalability through clustering will be achieved

These factors further accelerate the value and TCO of databases over time. Describe the features, tools, and utilities of Structured Query Language (SQL). How can tasks be automated with SQL? SQL has specifically been designed with features, tools and utilities to enable programmers to support nth-tier data architectures in addition to legacy client-server computing scenarios. The development and continual improvement of the features, tools and utilities of SQL for automating tasks
