The Course Project will consist of three tasks, due in Weeks 2, 4, and 6. Successful completion of the labs will help you in completing the project tasks.
Week 6: Task 3: Database Construction Using MySQL and Research Paper (120 points)

Note: MySQL is required for this project. Please ensure you can run MySQL via Omnymbus.

PROJECT OVERVIEW:
Scenario and Summary

In this assignment, you will create and populate a MySQL database based on the ERD you created in task2. Update the ERD you submitted for task2 with the corrections required by your instructor. To help you with this task, your instructor will provide you with the data dictionary of the database. This will provide you information on every table you must create for the ABC Company database. Every entity is listed in the data dictionary along with the PK/FK information, as well as the data types for the attributes. These data types are MySQL data types, so they can go directly in the create table statements. Using the corrected ERD and the data dictionary provided, write the necessary MySQL statements to create the ABC company database. To complete this assignment, you will need to be able to run MySQL via Omnymbus.

Deliverables

1. Corrected ERD based on the instructor feedback and data dictionary. The data dictionary titled “COURSE PROJECT Week6Task3DataDictonary.xlsx” is found in the folder titled Course Project Documents. Save your file as Lastname_Task3_revisedERD.vsd.
2. Script file saved as Lastname_task3.sql, which includes all the DROP, CREATE, ALTER, and INSERT statements needed to create the ABC Company database
3. Word document showing the run result of the script file saved as Lastname_task3Result.docx
4. Word document consisting of a research paper as described Step 4 below. This document should be 2–3 pages (double spaced).
5. When done, upload zipped file containing three files

Step 1

Revise the ERD you submitted for the previous task with the feedback provided by your instructor and the help of the given data dictionary document.

Step 2
• Create a file with the name Lastname_Task3.sql.
• In your sql file, to drop the tables in case you run the script repeatedly, please include the following at the top of your script.
o SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Inventory CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS inventory CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS line_item CASCADE ;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS product CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS orders CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS store CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS employee CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS department CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Warehouse CASCADE;
o DROP TABLE IF EXISTS region CASCADE;
o SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;
• In your sql file, write CREATE TABLE statements for each table in the database. You can try to create each table one at a time and then test the creation of the table before going on to creating the next table. Use the data types given in the data dictionary. Make sure every table has primary key(s), foreign keys if required, and not nulls if required. (Refer to data dictionary for this information)
• Save the file with the name Lastname_Task3.sql.
• Log in to your MySQL account via Omnymbus as specified in the tutorial “Login MySQL Omnymbus Environment.docx” noted at the bottom of this document.
• Create a database following the proper naming convention as specified in the tutorial “Creating a Database in MySQL Omnymbus Environment.docx” noted at the end of this document.
• Click on the database name you just created.
• Run the script file as specified in the tutorial “Running SQL Scripts in MySQL Omnymbus Environment.docx” noted at the end of this document. If there are no errors, all tables will be successfully created. You may check them by adding SHOW TABLES at the end of your script file.
• If you have errors, correct those errors and execute the script again until it is error free.
Step 3
Add data to your database.
• In your SQL Script, write insert statements to successfully insert data into each table.
• A minimum of three rows are required for each table.
• In your SQL script, check the data in each table by running a SELECT * FROM table query.
• Run your SQL script to test it.
• When you are satisfied with you’re the output of your SQL Script, copy the output to a Word file.

Step 4

Writing a research paper on the role of databases in real-life business systems.
• Paper topic description: Databases have many applications in businesses. Discuss the role of databases in one of the following applications.
o Business intelligence
o Enterprise-wide applications (e.g., ERP, CRM, SCM, etc.)
o E-business
o Search engines (e.g., Google’s Bigtable)
o A specific industry (e.g., banking)
o Another topic (approved by the instructor)
• The paper should be 2–3 pages, double spaced.
• You must use at least three authoritative resources other than your textbook. These must be displayed in a bibliography and must be clearly cited in the body of the paper.

Rubrics
Points for will be awarded according to the following rubrics.
• 10 points: Visio drawing: revised E-R model provided as a Visio diagram
• 20 points: CREATE statements: successfully creating all tables
• 10 points: Primary keys: correct primary keys created for all tables
• 10 points: Foreign keys: all required foreign keys created
• 10 points: ALTER statement: any alter statements required
• 10 points: INSERT statements: minimum three rows per table found
• 50 points: Research paper
