An eCommerce database design is a good example of a real application that you can design a database for. It has some simple and common concepts such as users, and some complicated features such as products, attributes, and orders.
In this video, you will:
- See my database design for a fictional eCommerce database
- Learn what requirements will be included in the design
- See an explanation of each table, why it was designed this way, and what each column is used for
- Understand how tables are related, and why, to support the features of an eCommerce database
This is just one example of an eCommerce database design, and it’s how I would design one. You may have other ways of designing it - feel free to share in the comments below!
There are no SQL scripts to create this database, but if you want to create it, you can learn how to create an SQL script from a database design in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?vF7IDTbentDs
