Database modeling & design

The best selling database design book is now even better! Database Modeling & Design is a comprehensive guide to DB design for commercial database products and their applications. Throughout, Toby Teorey offers practical and immediately usable techniques for transforming the ER model into SQL data structures. The proliferation of SQL-compliant databases on LAN servers and PCs has spurred the demand for applications written for these relational and object-oriented databases. Professionals from many background can learn to design database applications effectively, using Database Modeling & Design. The topic organization follows the design process and issues are introduced as needed, with the development of the design. The presentation is accessible and allows for immediate application of the design methods, yet rigorous enough for the reader to get solid results. Database Modeling & Design is ideal for the DB practitioner and applications programmer and for those with computer experience but no previous DB training. . New to this Edition: A simple introduction to the terms and concepts of relational databases for those new to DB application programming; a complete description of SQL with 20 sample queries; object data modeling and its relationship to ER modeling for easy conversion when needed; figures and examples utilize standard Chen notation; new coverage of DB tuning; and a new case study: an intuitive employee database example that allows the reader to concentrate on concepts rather than on the specifics of the database.
