CST363 Module 8
Briefly describe the what you consider to be the three (3) most important things about this course.
1. Getting familiar with SQL and MongoDB documentation.
A major topic in this course was the basics of using SQL and MongoDB databases, this is a vital aspect due to how common these two systems are in the overall industry. Doing so allows us to be pre-exposed to industry standard systems before being tossed into a working environment that is already using a similar database system.
2. Understanding how to efficiently lay out data
Another important topic that was covered in this course is how to efficiently lay out data in a database. This includes reducing redundant data, prioritizing important attributes, enabling efficient queries, etc. This topic allows us to look at a target set of data and determine the most efficient way to lay out a matching database.
3. How to link a database to application code.
A final important topic that was covered in this course is one of the ways that a database can be accessed using application code such as a small website that can pull and alter data within a target database.
