 E-commerce: Track orders and inventory.

6. Advantages and Disadvantages

 Reduces data redundancy.


 Increases security.
 Easy data access.
Disadvantages

 Complex design.
 High initial cost.
 Requires training.

7. View of Data

 Physical View: How data is stored (backend).


 Logical View: How data is organized for users.
 External View: Specific to user needs (e.g., reports).

8. Data Model

o Hierarchical: Parent-child structure.
o Relational: Uses tables (most common).
