RE: [PHP-DB] Designing a database

You've gotten some good general instructions here! The design of the database depends on its intended use -- with more information about the application, we could give your more specific assistance on the db design. What's it going to be used for? How will it be accessed? By motherboard serial number, machine ID, inventory tag, ..., what? That's for starters... -----Original Message----- From: Joni Järvinen - Wandu [mailto:joni.jarvinen@kolumbus.fi] Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2001 02:32 To: PHP-DB Subject: [PHP-DB] Designing a database Hey I'm quite new to databases so I though I'd ask you for some tips in designing a database. The db that I'm supposed to design holds information about workstations: Motherboard (Motherboard id, # of pci slots, agp slot etc etc.), Harddisks (Size, in what ide and master/slave, etc), the physical location of the workstation and it's hardware configuration etc. So if you could give me some tips and pointers for what tables to create etc I would be grateful.
