ER MODEL
 ER model stands for an Entity-Relationship
model. It is a high-level data model. This model is
used to define the data elements and
relationship for a specified system.

 It develops a conceptual design for the database.


It also develops a very simple and easy to design
view of data.

 In ER modeling, the database structure is


portrayed as a diagram called an entity-
ENTITY

An entity may be an
object, place, person, or
an event which stores
data in the database. In
an entity-relationship
diagram, an entity is
represented by a
rectangle. Student,

entity for its distinct identity.

It is represented by a rectangle. A weak entity is represented by a double


outlined rectangle.
The relationship between a weak entity type and strong entity type
is called an IDENTIFYING RELATIONSHIP and shown with a

double outlined diamond instead of a single outlined diamond. This
representation can be seen in the diagram below-
~ An attribute in an Entity-Relationship Model describes
the properties or characteristics of an entity.

~ It is represented by an oval or ellipse shape in the


ER diagram.

~ Every oval shape represents one attribute and is


directly connected to its entity which is in the rectangle
in shape.

ATTRIBUTES
• An attribute which contains an atomic value
and cannot be divided further is called a
simple attribute.
SIMPLE
• For example, Gender and Salary of a ATTRIBU
person.
• It is also represented by an oval. TE
• An attribute which can uniquely identify an
entity in an entity set is called a key attribute.
• It represents a primary key in the ER diagram. KEY
In an Entity-Relationship diagram, the key
attribute is denoted by an oval with an ATTRIBU
underlying line.
• For example, employee_id will be unique
TE
for each employee.
• An attribute which can be derived from other
attributes is called a derived attribute.
• These attributes are represented by a dashed DERIVED
oval shape.
• For example, employee age is a derived ATTRIBU
attribute as it changes over time and can be
derived from another attribute DOB.
TE
• An attribute which contains more than one
value for a given entity.
MULTI-VALUED
• For example, an employee can have more ATTRIBUTE
than one mobile number and email address.
• An attribute which is a combination of two
or more simple attributes is called a
composite attribute. COMPOSIT
• It is represented by an ellipse, and that
ellipse comprises of other ellipses.

• For example, the Name attribute of an ATTRIBUT
employee entity type consists of First
name, Second name, and Last name. E
~ A relationship is used to describe the relation
between entities. Diamond or rhombus is used
to represent the relationship

For example, Scientist can invent
