Understanding and Applying Data Modeling in Application Development

Date: Tuesday, November 13, 2007 Time: 2:00 PM Eastern; 11:00 AM Pacific

About the Webcast: Data modeling is the process of mapping real world information requirements to logical representations of the supporting data. Once your logical model is complete, you can start thinking about transforming it into a physical database model. Keeping the logical and physical model separate, but "in sync" will help ensure that you build a solid database that reflects the business needs. This technical Webcast gives you a thorough understanding of data modeling and shows you how to apply data modeling to application development. This presentation: Takes a close look at entities, attributes, and relationships, and how you can use them to build a logical model. Demonstrates how to take entities, attributes, and relationships and turn them into tables, columns, and keys. Looks at how you can use modeling tools like CA ERwin® DM to help in the process of creating a logical data model and mapping it to a physical database structure.
