  6. TIVOLI SERVICE DESK ARCHITECHTURE CLIENT RDBMS DB/2, DB/2 MAINFRAME, ORACLE, SQL SERVER, INFORMIX, OR SYBASE SERVER DATABASE Senior Project - Explanation • TSD (Tivoli Service Desk) supports the use of 6 database platforms. Each of these platforms require a different set of scripts to build the database • This project would generate platform specific scripts based on a single document

  7. Senior Project - Technical Exposure • OOAD/OOP • Database structure and design • Various RDBMS platforms • Java • XML (if chosen to describe the database schema) • SQL • UML (Unified Modeling Language)

  8. Senior Project - Tools • Tivoli Database Build Utility (TDAC) • SQL Tools for various database platforms • Java Development Kit 1.2.x (Java 2) • Java Integrated Development Environments • CMVC version control system • Rational Rose

  9. Senior Project - Issues/Challenges • Analyzing the subtle differences in all supported RDBMS platforms • A determination would have to be made in the requirements phase as to which scripts would be addressed • Create Tables • Drop Tables • Create Views • Drop Views • Create Triggers • Create Indexes

  10. XML XML TEMPLATE JAVA PARSER DATABASE SCRIPTS: DB/2,DB/2 MAINFRAME, ORACLE, SQL SERVER, INFORMIX, SYBASE TDAC RDBMS Senior Project - Potential Direction • Define the database schema in XML • Create a Java utility to parse the XML and then generate the appropriate platform-specific database scripts

  11. Senior Project - Student Benefits • Database design • Enterprise scale product • Real world development life cycle process • Tools required to do large scale collaborative development

  12. Senior Project - Tivoli Benefits • Eliminate a significant source of development and testing effort that recurs for each release of the product • Defects introduced by redundant platform specific script changes would be significantly reduced
