What is a Logical Database Design?
A logical database design is a design of a database that is based on the rules and concepts of a particular data model.[1]
A logical database design is independent of any physical implementation. It can be thought of as a blueprint for a database.
A logical database design is typically created by data modelers and database administrators. It includes a description of the data to be stored in the database, as well as the relationships between the data.
A logical database design is used for a number of purposes, including:
- To understand the data that will be stored in a database
- To ensure the accuracy and consistency of the data
- To create a design that can be easily translated into a physical database design
- To document the design of a database
A logical database design is an important step in the process of designing a database. It can help ensure that the data in the database is accurate and consistent and that the design can be easily translated into a physical database design.
A logical database design is important because it can help ensure that the data in a database is consistent and accurate. It can also help make sure that the database can be easily understood and maintained.[2]
