Part IV. Implementing Databases (with Examples in Access and MySQL)

The chapters earlier in this book explained how to design a database. They showed how to gather requirements, build data models, convert those models into relational designs, and refine those designs for a particular database example. They showed you how to prepare to build a database but they didn't actually build one.

The chapters in this part of the book show how to actually build a database using two database management systems. Chapter 15 explains how to build a database with Microsoft Access. Chapter 16 explains how to build a database with MySQL.
