Your relational schema diagram should include primary and foreign keys. Often-times in database system development, requirements will change after the conceptual data model has been drafted: in your rela- tional schema diagram, add the following three additional attributes: attribute “birth.date" for the relation schema Host; attribute “start.date" for the relation schema Writer; and attribute “salary" for relation schema Cast Member. Please refer back to the requirements in Question 6, for additional details that may constrain the design of the relational schema model. Use the tool linked to create an image. Hints: please carefully note that "rerun date", “address", and “phone" are multi-valued attributes; how would those be depicted in the relational schema diagram? Also, please carefully note the many-to-many relationships; how would those…arrow_forwardSwing Jazz Club ERD Problem Follow the Simple Procedure for ERD diagramming to design an ERD using the following user provided information. Remember the ERD will eventually turn into the design for a database from a top down view. Make sure you resolve any many to many conflicts. Label an identifier or primary key and all pertinent attributes given. If an attribute is not readily apparent from the user information, then make one up that makes sense for the particular entity. Therefore, all entities should end up with at least an identifier and another attribute that makes sense. You may use any of the approaches shown by the book, though the ER-Model and Crow’s foot are the most common. Make sure you show entities, relationships, cardinality, and optionality.
