Download or read book Data Model Patterns A Metadata Map written by David C. Hay and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-07-20 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data Model Patterns: A Metadata Map not only presents a conceptual model of a metadata repository but also demonstrates a true enterprise data model of the information technology industry itself. It provides a step-by-step description of the model and is organized so that different readers can benefit from different parts. It offers a view of the world being addressed by all the techniques, methods, and tools of the information processing industry (for example, object-oriented design, CASE, business process re-engineering, etc.) and presents several concepts that need to be addressed by such tools. This book is pertinent, with companies and government agencies realizing that the data they use represent a significant corporate resource recognize the need to integrate data that has traditionally only been available from disparate sources. An important component of this integration is management of the "metadata" that describe, catalogue, and provide access to the various forms of underlying business data. The "metadata repository" is essential to keep track of the various physical components of these systems and their semantics. The book is ideal for data management professionals, data modeling and design professionals, and data warehouse and database repository designers. A comprehensive work based on the Zachman Framework for information architecture—encompassing the Business Owner's, Architect's, and Designer's views, for all columns (data, activities, locations, people, timing, and motivation) Provides a step-by-step description of model and is organized so that different readers can benefit from different parts Provides a view of the world being addressed by all the techniques, methods and tools of the information processing industry (for example, object-oriented design, CASE, business process re-engineering, etc.) Presents many concepts that are not currently being addressed by such tools — and should be
Download or read book The Enterprise Data Model written by Andy Graham and published by Koios Associates Limited. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wouldn't it be great to understand all the data in your organisation? Just imagine being able to define, agree and manage information concepts that impact on business strategy? Then image that these information concepts can be linked to the physical database attributes that ultimately are used to create them. That's what this book is about. It focuses on the data model as the foundation for achieving this understanding. This book provides a framework for the enterprise data model, the business reasons behind it and the differences between conceptual, logical and physical data models. The question of how, and why, to use a data model artifact as part of the data governance toolkit for the whole enterprise is also addressed. This publication is not an in-depth manual on how to model data for a new database system or your next design project. It instead focuses at a level above these implementation projects and addresses the issues that organisations typical struggling with such as: * How do we provide a framework within which we can manage our data assets? * How do we develop applications that adhere to a set of data standards; without creating a nightmare of administration and governance that is both unwieldy and unusable? * How can we get business value from our enterprise data? Chapter headings are: * Chapter 1 - Introduction * Chapter 2 - Information and Data * Chapter 3 - Pillars of Value * Chapter 4 - An Overview of Data Modelling * Chapter 5 - Data Architecture * Chapter 6 - The Enterprise Data Model * Chapter 7 - Build the Model one Project at a Time * Chapter 8 - Master Data * Chapter 9 - Data Governance * Chapter 10 - The Enterprise Data Framework This 2nd edition revises the original text to add extra details around key areas such as the enterprise data model framework and the pillars of value. It also improves the quality of the original text.
Download or read book Usage Driven Database Design written by George Tillmann and published by Apress. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design great databases—from logical data modeling through physical schema definition. You will learn a framework that finally cracks the problem of merging data and process models into a meaningful and unified design that accounts for how data is actually used in production systems. Key to the framework is a method for taking the logical data model that is a static look at the definition of the data, and merging that static look with the process models describing how the data will be used in actual practice once a given system is implemented. The approach solves the disconnect between the static definition of data in the logical data model and the dynamic flow of the data in the logical process models. The design framework in this book can be used to create operational databases for transaction processing systems, or for data warehouses in support of decision support systems. The information manager can be a flat file, Oracle Database, IMS, NoSQL, Cassandra, Hadoop, or any other DBMS. Usage-Driven Database Design emphasizes practical aspects of design, and speaks to what works, what doesn’t work, and what to avoid at all costs. Included in the book are lessons learned by the author over his 30+ years in the corporate trenches. Everything in the book is grounded on good theory, yet demonstrates a professional and pragmatic approach to design that can come only from decades of experience. Presents an end-to-end framework from logical data modeling through physical schema definition. Includes lessons learned, techniques, and tricks that can turn a database disaster into a success. Applies to all types of database management systems, including NoSQL such as Cassandra and Hadoop, and mainstream SQL databases such as Oracle and SQL Server What You'll Learn Create logical data models that accurately reflect the real world of the user Create usage scenarios reflecting how applications will use a new database Merge static data models with dynamic process models to create resilient yet flexible database designs Support application requirements by creating responsive database schemas in any database architecture Cope with big data and unstructured data for transaction processing and decision support systems Recognize when relational approaches won’t work, and when to turn toward NoSQL solutions such as Cassandra or Hadoop Who This Book Is For System developers, including business analysts, database designers, database administrators, and application designers and developers who must design or interact with database systems

Download or read book Digitalized and Harmonized Industrial Production Systems written by Armando Walter Colombo and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the one side, Industrial competitiveness today means shorter product lifecycles, increased product variety, and shorter times to market and customized tangible products and services. To face these challenges, the manufacturing industry is forced to move from traditional management, control, and automation approaches towards industrial cyber-physical systems. On the other side, several emergent engineering approaches and related Information‐Communication‐Control‐Technologies, such as Multi‐Agent-Systems, Service‐Oriented Architecture, Plug‐and‐Produce Systems, Cloud and Fog Technologies, Big Data and Analytics, among others, have been researched during the last years. The confluence of those results with the latest developments in Industrial Digitalization, Systems‐of‐Cyber-Physical-Systems Engineering, Internet‐of‐Things, Internet‐of‐Services, and Industry 4.0 is opening a new broad spectrum of innovation possibilities. The PERFoRM (Production-harmonizEd-Reconfiguration of Flexible Robots and Machinery) approach is one of them. It teaches the reader what it means when production machines and systems are digitalized and migrated into Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems and what happens when they are networked and start collaborating with each other and with the human, using the internet. After a Technology Trend Screening and beyond a comprehensive state-of-the-art analysis about Industrial Digitalization and Industry 4.0-compliant solutions, the book introduces methods, architectures, and technologies applicable in real industrial use cases, explained for a broad audience of researchers, practitioners, and industrialists.
