Database Design and Modeling: Getting It Right the First Time
August 2009
(Based on 39 reviews)
In the world of databases, "getting it right" is a phrase filled with ambiguity, for who can say what "right" truly is? Frankly, it’s a lot easier to spot "bad" or "not right" database schemas than it is to confirm that a database schema is "right".

Database modeling and design is at the core of a healthy database management and performance foundation. Getting it right the first time will enhance the bottom line in a variety of ways. It will:

• Ensure data accuracy and reliability.
• Support corporate goals and evolving business initiatives, allowing the company to respond more quickly and precisely to new business opportunities and competitive threats.
