About this title

Synopsis

This book bridges the gap between UML conceptual class diagrams used in industry and the EER diagrams used in databases. Dietrich and Urban include detailed coverage of the object-relational features of the SQL standard. Connects database modeling using EER and industry modeling using UML. Illustrates object features with in-depth coverage of SQL standards. Demonstrates side-by-side concepts of mapping UML and EER. Uses web application to dynamically access information from a relational database. Provides a strong foundation for object-relational concepts. Analyzes and compares three data models. Summarizes critical concepts. This book is designed for database architects and software architects.
