Speaking: #SQLSat96 Washington, DC …well… Chevy Chase, MD 5 Nov
I’ll be presenting Model Driven Database Design on Saturday, 5 November at the SQL Saturday Washington DC. Which is being held in Chevy Chase, Maryland. Yes, I know this is the greater DC area. Last year it was held in Reston, Virginia. But these data things drive data architects crazy. That’s why you really don’t want to live with a data architect. Ever.
Anyway, I’ll be presenting a brand new presentation that covers:
Model-Driven Database Design
Model-Driven Database Development: Myths, Magic and Methods. In this presentation, Karen discusses data model-driven database development from the point of view of the Data Architect, the DBA, and the Developer. She will cover topics such as "Who does what?", "Why are we doing this?", "Do I have to Use a GUI?" and "Just who do you think you are?". Finally, 10 tips for making model-driven database development successful in your organization’s culture and environment.
Session Level: Beginner
