Concept of Relational Database Design

AU: Dec.-19, Marks 7

There are two primary goals of relational database design -

 i) To generate a set of relation schemas that allows us to store information without unnecessary redundancy, and 

ii) To allows us to retrieve information easily.

For achieving these goals, the database design need to be normalized. That means we have to check whether the schema is it normal form or not.

For checking the normal form of the schema, it is necessary to check the functional dependencies and other data dependencies that exists within the schema. Hence before letting us know what the normalization means, it is necessary to understand the concept of functional dependencies.
