Data Architecture Standards
The 5 documents on this page represent the Data Architecture Standards. The Oracle Designer Standards apply primarily to the System Design Standards template and relational modelling with Oracle Designer, except for reference to logical modelling which is paralleled in the UML development stream. The other four documents (Naming and Describing, Corporate Person Org, Corporate Code Usage, and Data Design Paradigms) apply both to relational and object modeling development streams. They are required reading for creation of the Software Requirements Specification and the System Design.
