Re: [epf-dev] OpenUP neglects data modeling?

The Agile DB plug in, still a work in progress, will be comprised of two packages:
1. Basic data stuff (role and artifact definitions).
2. Agile data techniques (db refactoring, db testing, and agile data modeling).
 
Minimally we should at least mention data modeling in the OpenUP.
 
Point the indignant data folks at www.agiledata.org.  Their brains will likely melt down and you won't have to listen to them complaining anymore.

Subject: [epf-dev] OpenUP neglects data modeling?

Hi
 
Looking through the content, it occurs to me that we may have inadvertently neglected data modeling, giving an "application software" bias to the content. 
 
Similar (mistaken) perceptions about RUP have caused me headaches for years - usually from indignant database designers who feel their discipline is undervalued in UML-centric development processes. Generally, I tend to think they have a point.
 
At the very least, I think we need to make sure that the data modeling content from RUP for Small Projects is brought over under the Visual Modeling package.
 
I will create a bugzilla entry under the Design discipline to cover this. It can always be closed if it's considered un-necessary. I'm perfectly happy to do the work on this.
 
Views welcome!
 
regards
 
Mark
