Creating and Customizing Schemas Using the DataDirect Schema Tool

After installation, you can create and define your schema map using the DataDirect Schema Tool. The Schema Tool allows you to map your NoSQL data model to a relational model that exposes your data to relational, SQL-based applications. Using the Schema Tool's Table Wizard, you decide whether to extract your native data into flattened, normalized, or customized relational views. Once you select a relational model, you can further customize your schema by defining column data types and the order in which columns appear. The schema maps created by the Schema Tool are stored in configuration files that allow them to be shared across servers.
