Deliverable 1: DB Analysis & Query (60 points)
D1: DB Project Analysis & Query: Develop a reasonable and realistic plan and outline the steps to accomplish the integrated project by the end of the course. You can also refer to Garden Glory project questions in §1~3 of the Textbook (at the end of each chapter).
Using these data presented in the list, state assumptions about functional dependencies among the columns of data. Justify your assumptions on the basis of these sample data and also on the basis of what you know about service businesses. Indicate what assumptions need to be checked with the users (GG) and what suggestions you may have about the determinants/keys (e.g., do you need a surrogate key?)
v Hint: refer to Text Chapter 2 for ” Functional Dependency ” and apply that technique to the GG project case
Based on the above analysis and assumptions, split the sample list into tables such that each has only one theme. Demonstrate that the modification problems you identified in question 2 have been eliminated.
v Hint: refer to Text Chapter 2 for ” Normalization Process ” and apply that technique to the GG project case. You can also refer to the 9 possible designs provided in the GG Project Questions section at the end of Chapter 2 in Text book, and choose the best one you believe.
