ITCO630 Group Project: Database System Design and Implementation

This assignment presents a database system designed as a group project for the ITCO630 course. The project involves creating a database, populating it with test data, and implementing various database objects, including stored procedures, triggers, and views. The solution includes SQL scripts, an ERD, and detailed documentation. Each student also submits an individual summary document describing the system, its strengths, and weaknesses, along with step-by-step instructions on how to run queries that demonstrate the system's functionality. The database design incorporates relational database principles, and the implementation includes a variety of queries, including those using subqueries and aggregate functions. The project emphasizes practical database design and implementation skills.

Group Project
For the group project, you will be creating a database system to solve a business problem of your choice.
The database system must meet the criteria shown below. In addition to the database solution, each
student will prepare a system summary.
Database System Requirements (Group Work):
Create a database and name it ITCO630_GPx where "x" is your group letter. Populate your database
with appropriate test data.
Include all of the scripts in a single file called ITCO630_GPx.SQL where x is your group letter.
Create at least 3 related tables in the database.
Create at least 2 stored procedures and a script to use each of them.
Create at least 1 view (using a script).
Create at least 1 trigger.
Create at least 5 useful queries. At least one of these queries should use a subquery and at least 1 of
the queries should use an aggregate function.
All scripts should be well-documented.
Individual Summary:
In addition to the group work described above, each group member will prepare a summary document
with the following information. This document will be submitted as a separate item along with the ZIP of
the database and the associated files. Do not submit a single group document. This document must be
created individually, and copying from other group members is not allowed. Your assignment must
include the following:
A Word document describing the system
An ERD or other graphical representation of the system

A description of the views, stored procedures, triggers, and queries
Step-by-step instructions on how to run the queries that will demonstrate the functionality of the
system
A summary of strengths and weaknesses of the system, as designed
Each student will submit the database, log file, and query files in a zip file called ITCO630_GP.ZIP, and his
or her own individual summary document as a separate submission. Please detach the database before
creating the zip file.
