Database Normalization Techniques Essentials...

HOME | FORUM | NEWSLETTER | SITEMAP | ABOUT ME | CONTACT ME | WATERCOOLER Database Normalization explained. Topic Understanding and mastering database normalization techniques is essential in order to achieve a high performance database design for your system. If your design doesn't conform to (at least) the Third Normal Form (3NF), chances are high that you will find it hard to achieve the performance needed for a successful application. Furthermore, you will find that writing good DML-statements (SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT or DELETE) is difficult, and sometimes actually impossible, without using a lot of procedural coding (PL/SQL in Oracle, VB/C# in Microsoft products). Many "experts" will tell you that if you do database normalization up to (and including) the Third Normal Form, you're well off. The Database Normalization eBook shows you that this a far too easy approach, and it is richly documented with graphical Entity Relationship and Server Diagram examples. Before we proceed, may I ask what is your profession? (If no option matches you, just skip it): Teacher Student Systems Analyst/Programmer Software Project Manager Software Project managers: Learn to control how your database will meet all project requirements. Systems Analysts and Programmers: Learn how to build high-performing databases allowing clean DML statements that run FAST. Students and Teachers: Learn all there is about the most important database design techniques VERY FAST and in a way even your mother will understand. Students: Outsmart your teachers. The Five Normal Forms The Database Normalization eBook will walk you through all the 5 Normal Forms in database normalization normally used to analyze data models in the making. We will be starting with formal definitions, and then explore and explain them in plain language. The mission of this 50-page eBook is not to deliver academic definitions of the normal forms, but to communicate the author's practical experience in data modeling using database normalization techniques, built on nearly 30 years of business experience with data modeling for government, industrial, communications and other large relational database customers. The Database Normalization eBook also contains separate chapters on Boyce/Codd Normal Form (BCNF), and Domain Key Normal Form (DKNF). Database Normalization eBook: Table Of Contents "Your eBook is now mandatory reading for my project members." Sabrina, Project Manager, Germany Target audiences: Software project managers Understand the difference and importance of database analysis and design vs. programming Reveal why programmers decide differently than the business needs, and why it can create a disaster Get on even terms with the technologists with no-fuzz language Speed up the design process Cut down on time and money spent You pull the shots Why all the talk about performance considerations is non-essential Compressed information, takes less time to learn and apply Easy, down-to-earth graphic examples Conceptual modeling examples (ER diagrams) Logical modeling examples(Server diagrams) Create functionality-rich structures with maximum business flexibility Design for business scalability All within budget and time! "I'm myself (since 1996) in the data modeling business (OLTP and OLAP, with accent on OLAP for the past 5 year).I own and have read about 30 - 40 books on this topic (practically most of the available and out of print books) and I'm still impressed by your website and ebooks. I like a lot of things about the keynotes and ebooks, what I like most is the balance you have managed to keep between a dry subject / theory and a clear "down-to-earth" treatment of the subject, without sacrificing any of the important aspects. The examples in the normalisation ebook are also very good." Georg Breazu, Senior Systems Consultant, Germany System analysts and programmers Compare normalized and denormalized structures Experience consequences of poor design on your programs Why the business model is more important than easy programming Complete DDL scripts so you can experiment with database tables Avoid poor-performing databases and programs Speed up the development process and avoid unneccesary time and cost spendings Highten the quality of the database as well as your SW Understand why poor normalization can make it impossible to write some DML-statements against the database "I've seen good, bad and butt ugly database design books. The database normalisation eBook is in the category of good. It is a concise guide, based on scientific principles and common sense." Philip, Systems Analyst, United Kingdom Students and teachers Explain database normalization in understandable (read: plain English) terms Ready-made examples for direct use Play with the ready-made database structures See consequences all the way from conceptual modeling to physical database structures Shorten down time to understand and master the 5 Normal Forms Instant download: Get going NOW! Teachers: Have your answers ready: The questions will come... Students: Outsmart your teacher "Your eBook has been very helpful to both me and my students." Robert, Teacher, USA Avoid the situation of this teacher, taken from a desperate post on a forum on the Internet: "I am about to start teaching Normalization to my students, and was wondering whether anyone can recommend an idiot's guide to BCNF for me! I am fine up to 3rd NF, then confusion sets in!... I would really like a simple explanation as any reference to BCNF which I have found so far on the Net is coughed in technical terms rather than words of less than two syllables..." (you will find out that this is no big deal...) As a teacher,you are faced with several challenges: How to communicate a complicated theme in a way that is both understandable and interesting? I know all about it: I have been teaching database design through my job for many years. It was actually what motivated me to write this eBook: Trying to explain a complicated theme in an understandable and engaging manner. A year ago, I found this cry for help, taken from a desperate post on a forum on the Internet: "I am about to start teaching Normalization to my students, and was wondering whether anyone can recommend an idiot's guide to BCNF for me! I am fine up to 3rd NF, then confusion sets in!... I would really like a simple explanation as any reference to BCNF which I have found so far on the Net is coughed in technical terms rather than words of less than two syllables..." (you will find out that this is no big deal...) I also got this relieved email from a teacher (and customer): "Your eBook has been very helpful to both me and my students." Robert, Teacher, USA Robert told me that he's using the graphical illustrations (Entity Relationship and Server Model diagrams) from my eBook to create a concistent theme through all the five Normal Forms for his students. Robert is also using my DDL scripts to actually create an example database for his students.

Have your answers ready: The difficult questions will come from your students... As a student,you are faced with a lot to learn in a limited amount of time. Some things you won't even learn properly: If your teacher isn't able to help you, who can? Take a look at this: It is a forum post from a teacher somewhere in Cyberspace: "I am about to start teaching Normalization to my students, and was wondering whether anyone can recommend an idiot's guide to BCNF for me! I am fine up to 3rd NF, then confusion sets in!...I would really like a simple explanation as any reference to BCNF which I have found so far on the Net is coughed in technical terms rather than words of less than two syllables..."Imagine if your future degrees depend on this teacher... I will let you in on a little secret: For 25 years, I have been responsible for hiring consultants for various companies. I love to hire freshly educated people; Very often, they bring enthusiasm, guts and new ideas with them. However, I always put them through subtle testing. Understanding database normalization techniques is high on my priority list...

Outsmart your teacher and fellow studentsRobert is a smart teacher :-) "Your eBook has been very helpful to both me and my students." Robert, Teacher, USA Robert is actually using the material from my eBook to structure his teaching of all the Five Normal Forms to his students. He is using all the E-R and Server Model diagrams, as well as the DDL scripts in my eBook as examples for them. As a Systems Analyst/Programmer, it is easy to fall into the trap of going head-on with programming, without taking the time for a proper design. I have also "been there, done that", myself, in earlier days.However, you know very well, as do I, that this shortcut to problem solving may cost you dearly, both in time spent on a problem, as well as the quality, and flexibility, to withstand changes in the business model for the finished system.With my database normalization eBook, you will:Compare normalized and denormalized structures Experience consequences of poor design on your programs Understand why the business...
