Home > Data Modeler Tutorial: Mode...
In this tutorial, you will use Data Modeler to create models for a simplified library database, which will include entities for books, patrons (people who have library cards), and transactions (checking a book out, returning a book, and so on).
This tutorial uses the same entities as for the tutorial provided with the SQL Developer online help. The model is deliberately oversimplified and would not be adequate for any actual public or organizational library. For more advanced tutorials and other materials, see Additional Resources for Data Modeling.
If the instructions do not mention a particular dialog box, tab, or field, then do not specify anything for it.
This simplified tutorial uses only a subset of the possible steps for the Top-Down Modeling approach. (For information about the approaches, see Approaches to Data Modeling.)
You will perform the following major steps:
