As a methodologist on the data side (the "what" in the Zachman framework) I
have become quite intrigued with ORM. I did a project back in 1992 using
InfoModeler and the client was blown away. But, I always felt there was the
right place for ERDs.
However, a great conceptual syntax (and at times syntax is more powerful
than semantics) allows the following:
- ternary+ relationships without introducing associative entities.
-rules, but not just business rules, are articulated in the natural language
of choice. And this is why mid-fix works.
-lots of choices on how to express the Subject Area Domain. Not domain as
Codd defines it, although he is quite right.
