The data dictionary is a database management system (DBMS) component that stores the definition of data characteristics and relationships. This "data about data" is called metadata. This week, you will utilize a relational database development environment to manipulate data in the AdventureWorks database. It will be helpful to first understand something about the physical structure of this database. In order to do this, access the metadata here : https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms124438(v=sql.100).aspx

 

Analyze the AdventureWorks 2008 database metadata to address the following in your post:

·         How many tables are in the AdventureWorks 2008 database?

·         Based on the AdventureWorks 2008 data dictionary, how many entities would be included in the logical data model of this database? Defend your answer.

·         Identify five tables in the AdventureWorks database. Provide the description of each table and discuss how each table is used.

·         View the CustomerAddress Table, Customer Table, Address Table, and AddressType Table.

·         Identify the primary key of each table.

·         Discuss which tables have a foreign key relationship with another table.

·         Discuss some of the different data types you viewed in the database tables.

 

Your initial post should be a minimum of three hundred words.
