Abstract: Techniques and solutions are described for converting data models between formats, such as between a conceptual data model and a physical data model for a database system, or between a conceptual data model and artefacts to be implemented in the database system. The conceptual data model is annotated with annotations that allow the physical data model or database artefacts to be automatically generated from the conceptual data model. The annotations can reflect relationships between entity types in the physical data model, such as inheritance relationships, header/item relationships, or one-to-one cardinality relationships. Annotations can also indicate attributes that should be added to entity types in the conceptual data model, such as attributes for versioning or data governance, that may not be used in the conceptual data model. Annotations can be used to determine how entity types in the conceptual data model will be denormalized in the physical data model.

Abstract: A method for data model clustering is provided herein. A first representation of a data model may be received. Edge betweenness values may be determined for respective nodes in the first representation. At least one node in the first representation may be identified as a linking node based on the respective edge betweenness values. One or more linking nodes may be removed from the first representation, thereby forming at least a first cluster and a second cluster. Degrees for the respective remaining nodes may be calculated. Respective hub nodes may be identified for the respective clusters based on the respective degrees in the clusters. Respective descriptions may be generated for the respective clusters based on the respective hub nodes. A clustered representation of the first representation may be stored with the clusters and their respective descriptions.
