Hi,
Last night I was working on a relatively new project. This got me
thinking... How do others tackle such a task?
So here is my question:
When faced with a new database related project, where do you start? Do
you first design the database schema, then build the BOM (Business
Objects) accordingly? Or, do you first design the BOM, then design the
database schema to fit.
Personally, most of my project were started by first creating the
database schema. Don't ask me why, that is just what I did. Maybe it was
because many of the tools I use, can write much of the boiler plate code
for me, and they do that by querying a database structure. But I've been
thinking that with my next project, I'm going to start with the BOM
first, and see how it goes. I'm assuming the end result should be the
same, no matter which part I tackled first.
What's your thoughts?
Regards,
- Graeme -
Hi Graeme
I normally start designing the database, then comes the BOM, and then I
start developing the UI with its functions and procedures; during this
process, the database normally gets slightly revised and completed with
stored procedures, views and triggers. Last, but not least, I develop
the reports (that is the part I love least).
But I think this is a matter of personal choice.
Best regards
vince
