1. Prerequisites

  • Completion of the exercises from the Data modeling in Design use case.

2. Key concepts

This microlearning contains the solutions to the exercises from the Data modeling in Design use case.

3. CDM, CDM & system message, message mapping

  • Creating a CDM
      By importing the Order.xsd file, the CDM should result in the following:

  • Creating a CDM message
      The CDM message data model should look like the following:
     data-modeling-in-design-exercises--creating-a-CDM-message-data-model.png
      The CDM message definition should look like the following:
     data-modeling-in-design-exercises--creating-a-CDM-message-definition.png
  • Creating a system message
      By importing the TransportOrder.xsd file, the system message data model should result in the following:
     data-modeling-in-design-exercises--creating-a-system-message-data-model.png
      The system message definition should look like the following:
     data-modeling-in-design-exercises--creating-a-system-message-definition.png
  • Complete message mapping
      The completed message mapping should look like the following:

     data-modeling-in-design-exercises--complete-message-mapping-second-part.png

4. Key takeaways

  • The CDM holds all entities and attributes that are relevant within the context of your complete integration landscape.
  • The CDM message is tailor-made for a specific piece of data and only holds the entities and attributes relevant for that piece of data.
  • A system message is specific to a system.
