Chapter 8: Database Modeling with Visio for Enterprise Architects




Highlights




The preceding chapters of this book have shown how to use Visual Studio .NET and UML to help architect an object-oriented solution that fulfills business needs. In order to accomplish this, Requirements were gathered and analyzed, conceptual designs were constructed, logical and functional diagrams were created, and a framework for the implementation was generated. All of this was accomplished from a truly object-oriented, code perspective. This chapter intends to illustrate how to do much the same thing but rather from a data-centric view. We will show how the new tools available to us can be used to achieve more speed, reliability, pertinence, and efficiency throughout the development process.


Specifically, these tools include:




  • Database modeling




  • Object Role Modeling (ORM)




  • Visio Data Projects




  • ORM Source Diagrams




  • Entity Relationship Source Diagrams




  • Reverse Engineering the database




  • Generating/Updating the database
