Baylor University Week 1 Database Creation and Design Paper

 

The Week 1 Lab provides a look at how a database works. A database is modeled and then created. Data is then added to the data base and SQL DML is used to manage the database and extract data and answer business questions. The results are then reported and analyzed with a description provided. These activities are common activities that take place in businesses on a daily basis when working with a database.
