Implementing the Design

Now that you have a physical database design, it is time to implement that design. CA IDMS/DB provides two methods for implementation:

• SQL DDL statements— Available only if your site has the SQL Option
• Non-SQL DDL statements

The data structure diagram you created is used as the basis for your implementation. The diagram that follows shows a portion of the data structure, annotated with both the SQL and non-SQL definition statements that apply to the components illustrated. Complete SQL and non-SQL implementations of the Commonweather Corporation database can be found in Non-SQL Database Implementation for the Commonweather Corporation.
