To start, we will learn about the various database systems and structured query language (SQL) from scratch. Then, this module will introduce us to the different concepts and techniques that are used in designing a database management system, such as ER data models and relational data models. We will also learn about relational databases and familiarize ourselves with important ideas such as keys, constraints, and operations regarding relational databases. At the end of this module, we’ll learn about two other key concepts in database design, namely normalization and functional dependencies.
