Information management involves concepts like metadata, which means data about data. Entities can have different types of relationships, including unary relationships which involve a single entity related to itself. Cardinality in relationships specifies the minimum and maximum number of instances one entity can be related to another. Identifiers and primary keys should not contain null values.
