E.R Diagram
What
is an ER Diagram?
An
ER Diagram (Entity-Relationship Diagram) is a visual representation of the data
structure and relationships within a database. It helps in designing the
database schema by defining the entities, their attributes, and the
relationships between them.
Components
of ER Diagrams
1. Entities: Objects or things in the system that have
data stored about them. Examples include Users, Products, Orders, etc.
2. Attributes: Properties or characteristics of entities.
For example, a User entity might have attributes like UserID, UserName, Email,
etc.
3. Relationships: The connections between entities. For
example, a User places an Order, and an Order contains Products.
4. Primary Key (PK): A unique identifier for each entity.
For example, UserID for the User entity.
5. Foreign Key (FK): An attribute that creates a link
between two entities by referring to the primary key of another entity.

Visual Representation
1. Draw Entities: Represent each entity as a rectangle
with its name.
2. Add Attributes: List attributes within each entity
rectangle.
3. Define Relationships: Draw lines connecting related
entities. Label the lines with cardinalities (e.g., 1-to-Many) and indicate
foreign keys.
