METHODOLOGY

A structured approach that uses procedures, techniques, tools, and documentation help to support and
make possible the process of design is called Design Methodology.

A design methodology encapsulates various phases, each containing some stages, which guide the
designer in the techniques suitable at each stage of the project. A design methodology also helps the
designer to plan, manage, control, and evaluate database development and managing projects.
Furthermore, it is a planned approach for analyzing and modeling a group of requirements for a
database in a standardized and ordered manner.

CONCEPTUAL DATA MODEL

Conceptual Model

The main aim of this model is to establish the entities, their attributes, and their relationships. In this
Data modeling level, there is hardly any detail available of the actual Database structure.

The 3 basic tenants of Data Model are:
